NARA thinks so, too - the records aren't in their NYC branch, but are in the Philadelphia branch (where the Baltimore records are kept). I regard this as an error, but there's no telling whether there are other errors or not. Compared to the amount of data, if there ARE other errors, I'm guessing it's an extremely small percentage. So, I'd say MOST of Castle Garden's records are for people who landed at Castle Garden, located in Battery Park on the southernmost tip of Manhattan, with at least 1 shipful of caveats. And isn't there always a caveat?
