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 or in the passenger's informational paragraph.
? Indicates a letter or number which could not be determined due to the
condition of the manifest or handwriting of the original recorder.
^ Indicates the word may be abbreviated and/or that superscript was used for
the subsequent letter or letters.
* The following information was on the cover page of the manifest, and may
have been completed by the Immigration Officer:
US Exemptions Total Aliens Total S.?. Transit

* Each page of the original manifest was numbered from 1 to 30, but sometimes
there were only a few passengers on one page. The transcriber has renumbered
the passengers consecutively, placing 30 passengers per transcribed page
whenever possible.
* The date of arrival in New York appears to have been written as "6 December
1910", then the "6" was overwritten by "7".
* The Physician's surname was written Ludeke, with Luedeke being an
alternative spelling.
* Munster was written with the umlaut u, the university the Physician attended.
* The original recorder only completed the following columns for United
States Citizens except as noted in each passenger's paragraph: Name; Age;
Sex; Marital status; Occupation; Nationality, Race or People, and Last
Permanent Residence State (all were listed as United States Citizen, or
abbreviated U.S.C.); Final Destination; Whether having ticket for final
destination.
* Some passengers were listed as U.S.B. by the original recorder. The
transcriber believes this to mean United States Born.
KAISER WILHELM DER GROSSE
The steamship KAISER WILHELM DER GROSSE was built for Norddeutscher Lloyd by AG Vulcan,
Stettin (ship #234), and launched on 4 May 1897. 14,349 tons; 197,7 x 20,1 meters
(length x breadth); 4 funnels, 2 masts; twin-screw propulsion (triple-expansion
engines), 28,000 horsepower, coal consumption 560 tons a day, service speed 22.5
knots; passenger accommodation: 332 in 1st class, 343 in 2nd class, 1,074 in
steerage (1901: 400 in 1st class, 350 in 2nd class, 800 in steerage).
The KAISER WILHELM DER GROSSE was the first 4-funnel ship, from the time of her
launch until 1899 the largest, and in 1898 the fastest ship in the world; in 1898,
she carried 24 per cent of the First Class passenger revenue on the North Atlantic to
New York.
19 September 1897, maiden voyage, Bremen-Southampton-New York- Plymouth-Bremen.
March 1898, record passage from The Needles to Sandy Hook, in 5 days, 15 hours,
46 minutes (average speed, 22,46 knots).
1900, first German ship to have a Marconi Wireless installation. June 1900, released
from the burning Norddeutscher Lloyd pier at Hoboken almost undamaged.
21 November 1906, collided at Cherbourg with the Royal Mail steamship ORINOCO, whose
clipper bow tore a starboard foreward hole; dead on both vessels.
26 January-1 March 1907, cruise, New York-Mediterranean (only cruise by a Norddeutscher
Lloyd "four-stacker" with paying passengers).
25 May 1907, lost her rudder on the passage from New York to Plymouth.
12 December 1910, returned from New York on one propeller at 17.5 knots, the other
having been lost off Newfoundland on the outward passage.
Winter 1913/14, rebuilt as an express emigrant carrier; 13,592 tons, passenger
accommodation: 630 in 3rd class, 1,500 in steerage.
18 March 1914, final voyage, Bremen-New York direct (called at Plymouth and Cherbourg
on the return passage).
2-4 August 1914, fitted out in Bremerhaven as a merchant cruiser. Sank three ships and
stopped the British passenger ships GALICIAN and ARLANZA, which were allowed to proceed.
26 August 1914, off Rio de Oro, Spanish West Africa, overtaken by the British cruiser
HMS HIGHFLYER. After a 90-minute battle, the KAISER WILHELM DER GROSSE ran out of
ammunition, and although not badly damaged she was scuttled by her crew. The wreck was
not dismantled until 1952. The ship's bell was given to the German government, which
passed it on to Norddeutscher Lloyd.
The KAISER WILHELM DER GROSSE was top-heavy, and was known to her regular passengers
as "Rolling Billy". The type of cargo she carried affected her performance: the most
lively and preferred cargo to New York was full barrels of beer, the empty barrels
going home.
