Transcriber's Notes:

? Indicates a letter or number which could not be determined due to the
  condition of the manifest or handwriting of the original recorder.

The question marks following the locations were added by the original transcriber,
 Bernard Kneuper.  
Other comments are not added as Mr. Kneuper translated this in a typed list, so the 
 original manifest was not seen.
