1861/01:  No major changes from Partagas and Diaz's (1995a) analysis. Storm determined to have reached hurricane status based upon several
ship reports.

1861/02:  No major changes from Partagas and Diaz's (1995a) analysis. Storm determined to have reached hurricane status based upon ship reports from the "Santiago de Cuba" and the "Kate Stevens".

1861/03:  No major changes from Partagas and Diaz's (1995a) analysis. Pressure reading of 958 mb not in hurricane's center (on 12 UTC, 30th of August) suggests winds of at least 91 kt from the northern wind-pressure relationship - 90 kt chosen for best track.  Storm judged to have reached hurricane force based upon this pressure reading and wind observations from the ships "Harvest Queen" and "Marianne".

1861/04:  No major changes from Partagas and Diaz's (1995a) analysis.  No track available, only one point.  Storm determined to have reached hurricane force based upon observations from the ship "David G. Wilson".

1861/05:  No major changes from Partagas and Diaz's (1995a) analysis. Inland winds over NE US reduced via methodology of Kaplan and DeMaria's (1995) inland decay model.  Storm determined to have reached hurricane force based upon observations from the ship "Virgina Ann".  Hurricane is also known as the "Equinoctial Storm" as described in Partagas and Diaz's (1995a) and Ludlum (1963).

1861/06:  Have extended the storm out four additional days as was suggested in Partagas and Diaz's (1995a) writeup to the 9th based upon the ship "Wellington".

1861/07:  No major changes from Partagas and Diaz's (1995a) analysis.  No track available, only one point.

1861/08:  Have started track over Gulf of Mexico instead of over Florida as was drawn in Partagas and Diaz's (1995a) analysis.  Inland winds over Florida and NE US reduced via methodology of Kaplan and DeMaria's (1995) inland decay model.  Values of 1000mb and 999mb give winds of 49 and 50 kt, respectively, utilizing the northern wind-pressure relationship;  50 kt is used in the best track.  Storm is determined to have reached hurricane force based upon observations from Hatteras Inlet and the ship "Honduras".  Hurricane is also known as the "Expedition Hurricane" as described in Partagas and Diaz's (1995a) and Ludlum (1963).
