Transcriber's Notes:

* An asterisk indicates an error on the part of the original recorder, not
  the transcriber, or is used to call your attention to additional information
  in the transcriber's notes.

? Indicates a letter or number which could not be determined due to the
  condition of the manifest or handwriting of the original recorder.

Two different handwritings were used to make this list, so it was
difficult to assume the shapes of M, N, L, T, etc.

Passenger numbers were added to aid in referencing.

 2  The second passenger is almost completely illegible.  Age seems to be
    missing.  He is a Male from U.S. America, whose last name begins with an
    "M".  Maybe Mathers or Mathias?
12  Mays - Could be Mayers
13-14  Daney - Could be Dimey
30  Esther Price really is listed as M. 
51  Ann Tynan really is listed as M.  
53- 55  Same occupations were dittoed throughout, therefore the first Farmer
    in a group was spelled out, rest in the group were dittoed.  Although
    the 3 names after Schmidt have blank for Occupation, it is possible they
    were also Sailors.
55  Maier - could be Moier
57  ?ambiaggio - could be Lambiaggio or Tambiaggio
59-60  Sini - could be Sim 
67  Rachel Reichart really is listed as M.
72  Sichtenstein - given name could be Tordis
