   in the transcriber's notes.

The information for the SS Germania is Hamburg to New Orleans sometime between
January 12, 1874 and February 3, 1874.

19  Initials after occupation of joiner are clear as N.S. but not sure what that means.
42  Country of origin is not indicated by ditto marks like the others, but no other
    indication given
43  Country of origin is not indicated by ditto marks like the others, but no other
    indication given
