Transcribers Notes:
The use of an * indicates an omission, error, or inconsistency of the
original recorder.
The use of a ? indicates a word or letters that could not be read due
to the quality of the original document.
There are no entries in columns 3 or 12,
therefore these columns were omitted from this listing.
*221 Looks like it should be Gronqvest, but written Grongvest.
223 Kevegar?i - could be "v" or "o" or "r".
242 Bi?kman - there is a loop resembling an "e" or a "c" at this point;
it could be a letter but the script is not connected (Bi ?kman)
so it could be just a curl beginning the "k".
A similar construction appears in lines 264 (Here?kisn) and 327
(Peisa?k).
*245-249 connected by a wavy line in the last column, lines 246-249 have
no entry in Column 11. These passengers appear to be traveling together.
259-260 Hal? - could be either Hale or Hall; last letter is taller than
most "e"s and shorter than most "l"s.
264 Here?kisn - there is a loop resembling an "e" or a "c" at this point;
it could be a letter but the script is not connected (Her e ?kisn)
so it could be just a curl beginning the "k". A similar construction
appears in lines 242 (Bi?kman) and 327 (Peisa?k) but not in other
internal "k's".
276 missing information faint but looks like 2 orlop; there is no number
in last column.
*281-282 - possibly should be Bengtson, although there are dots over both
"i"s
288 Mo?en - could be either Molen or Moten
*290 Chs or Chr - possibly for Christian
*292 Iohan - this looks like it should be Johan, but the first letter is
made exactly like the first letter in Isak in the line above.
It does not go below the line at all as the other J's do.
*303-304 are connected by a wavy line in the last column, and line 304
has no information in column 11. These passengers appear to be
traveling together.
*319-320 are connected by a wavy line in the last column, and line 320
has no information in column 11. These passengers appear to be
traveling together.
327 Peisa?k - there is a loop resembling an "e" or a "c" at this point;
it could be a letter but the script is not connected (Peis a ?k)
so it could be just a curl beginning the "k". A similar construction
appears in lines 242 {Bi?kman) and 264 (Here?kisn).
*327-332 are connected by a wavy line in the last column, and no information
in column 11 for lines 328-332. These passengers appear to be traveling
together.
329 the ? could be any letter(s) which does not extend below or well above
the line
*330 seems like a male name, but the ditto marks are repeated from line 328
(female) down.
