Transcriber's Notes:

The use of an * indicates an omission or error made by the original recorder
 and/or further information/explanation in the Transcriber's Notes.

The use of a ? indicates a word or letters that could not be read, due to the
 quality of the original document.

The use or a ^ indicates that the letter/s immediately following this symbol
 are superscripted.

Passenger Notes:
 #56:  Given name written without any indication that it is abbreviated, i.e.,
       no period or superscripted letter/s following the "h".  However, name 
       probably Catherine.
 #50-51:  Surname possibly Wachler; the line crossing the fifth letter is very
       faint.
 #65:  There is a large "scrolly" letter following James so closely that it 
       could be a part of the first name or it could be a middle initial, 
       possibly an "R".
 #88:  Given name looks like Meue or Mene.
 #91:  Given name written without any indication that it is abbreviated, i.e., 
       no period or superscripted letter/s following the "h".  However, name
       probably Catherine.
 #95:  "Squiggle" at end of surname could be an incomplete "r".  Name possibly
       Menger.
#122-126:  Surname looks like Deituall or Dutuall.  Neither could be verified
#127:  Surname looks like Debenor or Debeuor.  Neither could be verified.
#128:  Given name written without any indication that it is abbreviated, i.e.,
       no period or superscripted letter/s following the "h".  However, name
       probably Catherine.
#136:  Age possibly 56.  What appears to be an extraneous mark above the 3 may
       actually be the top portion of a 5.
#160   Given name looks like Heynaw or Heynan.  Last letter looks like either 
       a "w" or an "n" with a final flourish. 
#161:  Given name written without any indication that it is abbreviated, i.e.,
       no period or superscripted letter/s following the "h".  However, name 
       probably Catherine.
#171:  Given name written without any indication that it is abbreviated, i.e., 
       no period or superscripted letter/s following the "h".  However, name
