Transcriber's Notes:
* An asterisk indicates an error on the part of the original recorder, not
the transcriber, or is used to call your attention to additional information
in the transcriber's notes.
? Indicates a letter or number which could not be determined due to the
condition of the manifest or handwriting of the original recorder.
* Although this ship arrived in the port of Baltimore Passenger Manifest was
written on a Port Of New York form by the steamship company. This ship, the
S.S. Leipzig, made regular cross Atlantic
runs from Bremen to Baltimore.
* Handwriting throughout Passenger Manifest is very hard to read.
Passenger Notes:

Correspondence added 05/09/06, passenger #60, HALBIG
Johann Halbig, who was the point man for his part of the family immigrating to the US
was probably a distant cousin of my great-grandfather, Johann Paul Halbig
who arrived in the US in 1880 or 1881. As there is only one place on the Germany map where the
Halbig name is listed, Johann probably came from the same town as my great-grandfather,
Machtilshausen in Bavaria or Bayern.
Researching Halbig, Braughal, Kluge, Meiningman, Mulholland and Smith.
For any feedback please EMAIL Jack Smith.
Correspondence 06/01/01 passengers #7-13 BARZ
While looking over this list I came across my grandmother and her family.
They are numbers 7 to 13. Bertha Barz was my grandmother. My grandfather
was Charles Reimer they settled in Indianapolis. They had 5 children,
Herbert, my father in 1892, Frances in 1893, Margaret in 1894, Alfred
in 1897 and Frank in 1902. My grandfather died around 1906 and my
grandmother didn't remarry until 1918. My father served in WW 1 in
France. He later moved to Detroit where he met my mother Clara Kassin.
They were married in 1931 and had 9 children. My parents died in 1965.
I have been looking for information on my family for about 6 months and
this is just another space filled in for me.
If anyone is researching this family, please contact Ed Reimer
Correspondence regarding Bohemian names
