Transcriber's Notes: The use of a * indicates a umlat over the u in the last
name.
The use of a ? indicates a word or letters that could not be read, due
to the quality of original document.
Passenger # 364 the age is written on a fold on the original manifest,
it is not legible.
#404 Question marks represent missing letters for the first name and
occupation.
At times the destination was written as the city instead of the state. Chicago
is in Illinois, Philadelphia is in Pennsylvania, San Francisco is in California,
Seguin is in Texas, St Paul is in Minnosota, Albany, Rochester and Buffalo are
in New York, Cincinnati is in Kansas, Holland is in Michigan, and St Louis is
in Missouri.
There were no births or deaths on this passage, therefore the
birth/death column has been eliminated.
