Use of a ? indicates a word or letters that could not be read, due to the quality of original document. Use of a ^ indicates superscript of the letters following. Port is poorly written, this could be Hamberg Havn (Hamberg harbor). Names are frequently abbreviated by writer. Try Johann/Johannes for Joh, Josef for Jos, Heinrich for Hein, Wilhelm for Wil, Wilhelmine for Wilh^e, Friedrich for Friedr, and so on. The Country to which they belong is sometimes partially cutoff on photocopy of the manifest. The Country in which they intend to become inhabitants column - the photocopy I worked from only showed this column on the first page and there it only shows the word 'States'. Died on Voyage column was eliminated as it was not used. Part of the Vessel occupied column was not used, but the beginning of each section of the ship was labeled above the names. 6 Entire entry has line through it. 13 Because of bracketing, cannot tell if from Hamberg or Prussia. 16- 17 Cloth tape covers part of names. 48 Surname possibly Ziety. 57 Surname possibly Laivlak. 72 Parts of name covered by edge of cloth tape. 73 Too dark to read. 74 Location is abbreviated and is either Hun, Ham or Han, which could be Hungary, Hamburg, Hannover, or other places. 80 Umlaut in surname. 82 First name too dark, but possibly Herm or Heinr. 83 Because of bracketing, cannot tell if from Bad or Prus; would guess at Prus. 90 Surname possibly Kosenberger. 91 Because of bracketing, cannot tell if from Bava or Pruss; would guess Pruss. 100 Location Ham or Hann (abbrev. meaning Hamburg or Hannover probably). 104 Umlaut in surname. 105 Occupation probably tanner, but middle letters are not clear. 116 First name either Abel or Obel. 121-122 Surname either Yess or Jess. 128-129 First name is covered by cloth tape. 130 Umlaut in surname. 138 Umlaut in first name. 157 Umlaut in surname. 173 Umlaut in surname. 181-182 Umlaut over second 'u' in surname. 184 First part of first name covered by cloth tape. 186 Umlaut in surname. 192 Because of bracketing, cannot tell if from Hessian or Baden; would guess Baden. 205 Umlaut in surname. 208-209 Same first names, but different ages. 233-234 Sex originally written as 'f', but 'm' was added behind it in different handwriting. 240 Partially covered with cloth tape, but believe it to read Herrm Huttenberger. Second letter of surname has an umlaut. Because of bracketing, cannot tell if from Bavaria or Hessian. 241-242 Umlaut in surname. 243 First name Gg; probably means a name like Georg. 246 Umlaut in surname. 252 Occupation is smeared in middle, but probably tinnmaker. 278 There is an 'x' in front of his name, possibly indicating he died on board. 282 Umlaut in surname. 293 Umlaut in surname. 297 Umlaut in surname. 299 Umlaut in surname. 301 Surname partially too dark to read, guess at Zierfass. 304 Umlaut in surname. 311 Entire entry has line through it. 324 Sex of 'f' and occupation 'wife' noted by ditto marks from line above, probably error or possibly name should have been Paula. 325-329 Umlaut in surname. 332 Umlaut in surname. 334 Fourth letter of surname can't tell if dotted or spot; Becie or Becce. 335 Umlaut in surname. 339 Entire entry has line though it. 344-346 There is a bracket around 'brother'. 347 Umlaut in surname. 348-350 There is a bracket around 'sister'. Correspondence 09/02/2003 passenger #136 & 137 Dencer Persons # 136 and 137 are my Great-Great Grand Parents, Ernst Dencer and Grete Dencer. Later they moved to Nebraska and had children. In the 1885 they show up on the census with a different spelling of the last name (Dienser) and moved to California. On the 1920 census the last name is spelled different again (Denser). One of their sons, Albert is my Great-grandfather and his son Albert Ernest is my Grandfather. Cindie Hobbs
