N. Guard M Captain U.S.A. [signed] F.D. Krüger Transcriber's Notes: * There are two additional columns on the list that I have not shown above. One column is for noting those passengers who died on the voyage; this column had no entries. Another column lists the country that the passengers intended to become inhabitants of; this column lists Western States for all passengers. * If you compare the passenger list to the emigration list from Clifford Neal Smith you will find some inconsistencies. The most noticeable one is the spelling of Sternitzky (Sternisky or Sternitzke). Based on the spelling of the name on tombstones, personal papers of Helena and Charles Sternitzky, obituaries and the census records written by Charles Sternitzky, I believe Sternitzky is the correct spelling. The handwriting on the passenger list is very hard to read, so I may have not transcribed all of it correctly. * There are also variations between the two lists in the ages and first name initials for some of the other passengers. But, I think the Schmidt, Sneider, Keil and Mathias passengers are the same people as listed in the emigration lists with those names.
