Transcriber's Notes:
* Asterisks indicate transcriber's footnotes.
? Question marks indicate illegible letters or words.
* Passenger numbers were added by the transcriber for reference.
* The four deaths were written out: "died on the 17th Sept" etc. but are
abbreviated here to fit the transcription space.
* This list has very small handwriting, blurred in many places. A copy of the
Quarterly Abstract provided some names and ages not legible on the original,
but listed origin and destination of top passenger only on most pages, and
was missing two passengers.
* USA destinations: Natties = Natchez?, Cincinati = Cincinnati,
Ellinois = Illinois, Mobil = Mobile, Accansas = Arkansas?, Iova = Iowa
* Spelling transcribed as written, eg Cabbin for Cabin, Martchant for
Merchant, etc.
* The following passengers' surnames contained an umlaut:
Umlaut over o: 98, 108-109, 149, 235, 281, 283, 286-289.
Umlaut over u: 14-15, 25-27, 247, 265-266.

Passenger Notes:
#29 - Not listed in the Quarterly Abstract.

#39 - Occupation is clearly Butcher on original, but listed as Butler on
Quarterly Abstract.
#121-etc - Oesa should read Oese.

#145 - Surname should read Haase.
#146 - Surname should read Kohnke (umlaut over o), later changed to Koenke.
#177 - Full name Maria Elisabeth Schollmeier (too long for transcription
space).

#238 - Occupation looks like Mouser or Mourer, but may be Maurer, a mason or
bricklayer.
