On this fourteenth day of October 1833, personally appeared before me, 
the subscriber, a justice of the peace in and for the City of Baltimore, 
Capt'n Helken, and ? oath on Holy Evangelly of Almighty God that the 
above statement is just and true and that there are one hundred and 
forty four passengers* over the age of five years.  (Signed) Jacob Deems
German Passengers

Transcriber's Notes:     
There seems to be a discrepancy between the number of passengers (142) 
on the manifest, and the number mentioned in the note following the 
list (144).

The towns of origin were not always spelled uniformly here, for 
example, Holzhausen, Holshausen, Gesen, Geser.  Other town names are probably 
spelled phonetically such as Oznobruck (Osnabruck).

Some occupations were in German, weber (weaver), backer (baker).  
And some were written phonetically, such as lhosmacker, which could 
possibly be lacemaker, but only a guess.

Passenger Notes:

  #1 no town of origin was filled in here.
  #3 town could be spelled Mothingen or Mothinger.
  #7 cannot be certain if there is a first initial there.
 #10-12 town could be spelled Firsterner (there is a town called Furstenau).
 #14 surname could be Geil or Geit.
 #17 surname looks like Hoff or Koff.
 #19 first initial possibly A; town looks like Schtrat.
 #21 town looks like Pheine (there is a town called Rheine); 
     destination looks like it is spelled Louise, perhaps for St. Louis 
     or Louisiana.
 #24-27 surname could be spelled Wissenberg or possibly Wiffenberg; 
     age for #24 could be 26 or 28.
 #27 first name looks like Luc or Lui.
 #28-33 surname looks like Stockann, does not look like it is spelled Stockmann.
 #40-42 town could be spelled Hernberg.
 #43 first initial could be I or J.
 #45 same as #43.
 #47 second initial could be A.
 #48-50 occupation possibly fanmaker, but looks like tanmaker.
 #50 first initial could be I or J.
 #59-63 town could be Neubor or Noubor or similar.
 #67 surname looks like Uhr or Elhr.
 #68-73 town could be spelled Gesen or Geser, though is probably the same as 
     a few other passengers on list, Gesen.
#112-117 surname could be Schaif or Scharf.
#118-120 surname could be Jean or Jern or Joem or similar.
#121-125 surname looks like Folt or Falt or Fott; age for #121 could be 
     59 or 39; perhaps occupation is lacemaker.
#126-131 surname looks like Tott in this area, but probably the same 
     as #121-125, can't tell which is the right one; see #121 for occupation.
#132-136 surname could be spelled Puton or Puten or Putin or similar.
#137-142 surname could be spelled Lang or Sang.
