Transcriber's Notes
* The use of an * indicates an omission or error made by 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.
* Ages are in years unless noted with an "m" for months.
* The German entries in the "Sex" column are Mann for man, Frau for woman, 
  Maedchen for girl, Sohn for son, and Tochter for daughter.
* The German entries in the "Occupation" column are 
  Baecker for baker, 
  Barbier for barber, 
  Bergmann for miner, 
  Bierbrauer for brewer, 
  Fuhrmann for teamster, 
  Gaertner for gardener, 
  Kellner for waiter, 
  Kuefer for cooper,
  Landmann for farmer, 
  Maurer for mason, 
  Sattler for harness maker, 
  Schaefer for shepherd, 
  Schneider for tailor, 
  Schuhmacher for shoemaker, 
  Seiler for ropemaker, 
  Tischler for joiner, 
  Toepfer for potter, 
  Wagner for carriage maker,
  Weber for weaver.
* Passengers 1 through 5 were in first class (I. Cajuete); 
  Passengers 6 through 19 were in second class (II. Cajuete ???????deck); 
  Passengers 20 through 92 were in steerage (Zwischendeck).
* The names and German words written in the manifest contained no 
  umlauts ("), therefore some spellings have been changed by the original
  recorder by adding an "e" after an umlauted vowel.  
* An example is the word, "Maedchen" which in German would be written "Madchen" 
  with an umlaut over the "a". 

Passenger's Notes:
 1 No occupation given; "1. Cajuete" (first class) is in the occupation 
   column for this line.
 2 Occupation probably pertains to passenger 1.
30 Middle name is apparently Maria or Marie; family name is probably 
   Holzscheider.
31 First name is possibly Albert partially obliterated by a crease.
58, 59 Identical names, different ages apparently an error by the 
   original recorder.
69 Occupation is probably Maurer.
