Transcriber's Notes:
* The use of an asterisk "*" indicates an error on the part of the original
recorder and not the transcriber or is used to call your attention to
additional information in the Transcriber's notes below.
? The use of a question mark "?" indicates a word or letters that could not be
read due to the quality of the original document.
* Eliminated columns: The Passenger's age in months, the second column under
the heading of "AGE" has been eliminated. Only two passengers were under the
age of one year and they are noted in the transcribers notes. The "Died on
the Voyage" column has been eliminated because no one died on the voyage.
* Apparently the microfilm photographer filmed the pages of this Manifest out
of order, therefore family members and traveling companions may be
separated.
* Queenstown is a seaport in County Cork in southwestern Ireland. It was
called Cove ( Cobh in Gaelic spelling ) before 1849. When the British
occupied Ireland they changed the name to Queenstown. The government renamed
it Cobh in 1922 after Ireland became free from British rule.
Passenger Notes:
#521 - Her age is either 4 or 9 as the top of the number is open and is hard to
determine. Juliane having a similar sounding name with her sister
Pauline, age 4 years, (Passenger #522) one might suspect they are twins.
Gap between #556 & #557 - This page has been spliced between these two
passengers. Passenger #556 and above are clearly German and so noted in
the Manifest column, "Country From which they belong". In the process of
splicing the film the photographer apparently missed the lines of
passengers changing the nationality from German to Irish. Passengers #557
through #582 are clearly Irish names, but due to the splice they're
noted with ditto marks from the top of the page as Germans. Passenger
#583 on the next page of the manifest is passenger #582's Sister and it
is appropriately marked that she is Irish. It has been noted above that
passengers number 557 through 582 are from Ireland.
#577 - Denis Murphy is 7 months old.
#587 - Forbes Fogarty is 2 months old.
#597 - George Glanis' middle initial is undistinguishable.
#603 - This passenger's last name has been obliterated. As if the recorder
initially misspelled the name and instead of erasing and correcting the
spelling, the recorder overwrote the initial writing.
#610 - The first letter of August's last name is not legible.
#624 - The last four letters of Ms.Gorden's last name are not legible.
#625-627 - The names of these passengers and the related information is not
legible because the resolution of the document in this area is too dark
to read.
#677 - Ms. Just's first name is not legible due to the condition of the
original document.
#680 - Neither the first nor last names are decipherable for this passenger due
to the penmanship of the recorder.
#684 - The last four or five letters in Henry's last name are indecipherable
due to penmanship of the recorder.
#690 - Is 8 months old.
#696 - The last four letters of this child's first name are indecipherable due
to penmanship of the recorder.
#698 - The last three or four letters in Maria's last name are indecipherable
due to penmanship of the recorder.
#699 - The last three or four letters in Charlotte's last name are
indecipherable due to penmanship of the recorder.
