A question mark (?) indicates indecipherable material.
An asterisk (*) indicates further information in these footnotes.
A caret (^) is used to indicate that the letters following it are
superscripted--the name has been abbreviated and the caret
indicates letters that have been omitted in the original listing.

numbered 1-32 who disembarked at Baltimore. Then twenty

Norfolk Va."

a Scandinavian (probably Swedish) origin.
