Transcriber's Notes:
A ? indicates letter or letters that could not be read because of the quality
of the document or the handwriting of the original lister. Every attempt is
made to list possibilities when feasible.
The numbering system is that of the transcriber and not of the original
lister. The form allows for 30 passengers per page, but at times the original
lister did not completely fill the page. When possible the transcriber has
listed 30 passengers per page.
Parentheses are used by the transcriber to clarify or add additional informa-
tion. They were not placed by the original lister.
The lister frequently abbreviated son-in-law as "sil" and brother-in-law as
"bil"; transcriber spelled these completely for ease in understanding.
The lister abbreviated "male" as "m" and "female" as "f"; transcriber spelled
these completely for ease in reading. Lister also abbreviated "married" as "m"
and "single" as "s"; again, these were spelled completely by transcriber.
Occasionally there were numbers written in above the column, particularly the
occupation column. These refer to the naturalization process. See jewishgen.org
for an explanation.
