Transcriber's Notes:
* Numbering on the original manifest begins with 1 in each section of the ship.
Continuous numbering has been used throughout this ship.
* Many given names are abbreviated or shortened with superscript used.
Superscript is represented by a ^ between the two sections of the name
(i.e. Wilh^m).
* Sometimes G was used to represent Germany and sometimes it wasn't used. The
names of cities have letters missing, presumably to shorten the writing task.
(i.e. Wurttemberg is spelled Wurttberg, Wurttembg, etc.)
* The baggage column has brackets that connect groups with one count on bags
making it appear that some have a lot of baggage and others have none.
* Transient passage = prepaid passage from Bremen to New York, regardless of
final destination of the passenger.
Protracted sojourn (P/S) = prepaid passage from Bremen to the final destination,
which could be New York or other location indicated for each passenger.
