Can anyone tell me, please, in the Remarks column what does the "Rem Reg" mean?

Hi there,

I am not on my usual puter, so I am having trouble reading your attachment. 

May I please ask you to provide the passenger's name, the ship's name, the year of the voyage. 

That way I can look it up myself and see if I can help.

I suspect that the column has writing against other passengers entries, and perhaps it is simply relating to the fares being paid/sponsored/dispersed, perhaps there's an amount in £ noted in the column too.   

Cheers,  JM

Hi Neil,

Do you read :    " £5 Rem Reg " .... if so, then I agree  ;D

Your guys are brilliant and so helpful - thanks JM, Merlin, Neil
Thanks so much - that term, Rem Reg - was not making sense to me - but it does now.
Now off to my next battle; I shall search for the sponsor Mary Flynn.
Cheers
Ashe
