Transcriber's Notes:
* Intended destination column has been eliminated as all passengers listed the
United States as their destination.
* There were no deaths reported and this column was eliminated.
* All passengers are listed as intransient and this column was also eliminated.
* The original recorder used brackets when listing the total number of luggage pieces for
each family. The stated number is listed with the first family member. In certain instances
the luggage count applied to more than one surname and was noted accordingly by transcriber.
* Variations in spelling of geographical locations, given names and occupations are
as they appear on the manifest.
* The use of a ? indicates a word or letters that could not be read due to the quality of the
original document or copy. Accordingly, the number of ?s do not necessarily represent all
the unknown letters in a name.
* The use of a * notes transcribers alternative spellings, interpretations and or comments.
Refer to numbered footnote.
* The original recorder used the following conventions in abbreviating given names:
In all cases the trailing vowel was superscripted and sometimes underlined.
Wilhe for Wilhelmine
Marga for Margaretha
Catha for Catherina
Mathe for Mathilde
389 Assumed to be an abbreviation for workman.
389 Passenger may be 28 years old.
393 Maybe 27 years of age.
396 Occupation looks like Hellniakr, Hatmaker etc.
399 Diacritical mark "u" over the a.
402 The a is not superscripted.
412 May also be Jars.
415 Last a is superscripted.
418 Name in fold and hard to read.

Correspondence added 12 April 2000:
While I am not related to the Hillmer family, I am working on an article
on emigrants from my home town Tating, and this is how I came across
that family.
Before emigrating to America, Christian Hilmer (date of birth 22 April 1835)
was a shepherd in Tating, Schleswig-Holstein, Germany.
He was married to Maria Auguste (nee Kaup or Raup?), who was born
on 9 April, 1837 in Oldenswort. They had 6 sons:
1. Heinrich Christian Johann Hilmer, born 3 January 1862 in Tating
2. Christian Friedrich Wilhelm Hilmer, born 4 May 1864 in Tating
3. Johann Rudolf Hilmer, bore 21 September 1866 in Tating
4. Hermann Friedrich Hilmer, born 9 January 1869 in Tating
5. Martin August Hilmer, born 25 April 1871 in Tating
6. Wilhelm Friedrich Hilmer, born 21 March 1876 in Tating
In his application for permission to emigrate he stated that three of
his siblings were already in the U.S.
The permission was granted on 7 May 1883.
Anyone having more information on the further history of this family,
please contact me. Ute Sachau
