Transcriber's Notes: 

* - 184-In the Sworn Statement the last number of the year was not filled in.
* - The Country to which they severally belong column was eliminated as all
    the passengers were from Germany.
* - The Country to which they in which they intend to become inhabitants
    column was eliminated as all the passengers were going to the United
    States.
* - The Died on the voyage column was eliminated as no passengers died.
    The column had the birth of passenger 11 recorded in it.

The manifest was not numbered.  The numbering was done by the transcriber.

11 - There was no given name for this passeneger; the child was born during
     the voyage.
18 - ?4-appears to have been a 1 written over a 2.
39 - Lo??uz - there was an inkblot over the name obscuring some letters.
43 - The page was damaged and taped obscuring the name, part of the age and
     occupation. 
52 - There was a ditto mark indicating the passenger was a male although the
     name indicates the passenger was female.
56,57 - Bar-umlaut over the a; an alternate spelling would be Baer.
59,61,64 - male was writtem over female.
62 - Kin?i?-the letters were written smaller and were not legible.
82 - Muller-umlaut over the u; an alternate spelling would be Mueller.
98 - Golne-umlaut over the o; an alternate spelling would be Goelne.
