Transcriber's Notes:
An asterisk (*) indicates either difficulty in deciphering the handwriting of
the manifest or something in the Transcriber Notes to which the reader should
refer.
A question mark (?) indicates a letter or a number that can not be transcribed
definitely.
A caret (^) indicates that the following letter in a word or name is
superscripted.
The transcriber numbered the passengers consecutively, even though they are
not numbered in the original manifest.
The recorder of the manifest abbreviates most given names by writing only the
first few letters of the name (e.g., Joh for Johann, Gottl for Gottleib, Chr
for Christian, etc.). Other times the recorder abbreviates given names by
writing the first few letters of the name, then skipping letters and then
writing the final letter (e.g., Margt for Margaret, Wilhe for Wilhemine, Joha
for Johanna, Christe for Christine, etc.).
The copy of the original manifest is in good condition and quite readable.
However, the recorder's formation of some letters is often not distinct and
some pairs of letters are easily confused. Examples of letters almost always
difficult to differentiate include the combinations (a, o), (n, u), (a, u) and
sometimes (n, r). Consequently, transcribed names are susceptible to error,
and should be viewed with some skepticism. In cases in which the correct
spelling of a name is unclear, the transcriber includes viable spelling
alternatives of names in the footnotes.
The recorder did not use ditto marks to indicate "same as above". Many
surname, sex and occupation entries are left blank and the reader is
confronted with the problem of interpreting the recorder's intended meaning.
The transcriber uses the surname of the passenger above for cases of children
whose surname is left blank, and uses the sex last entered for a passenger
above, and correlates this interpretation with whether the passenger has a
masculine or feminine given name. Occupations are only given in the
transcription if the recorder entered them. Since it was common for recorders
not to make an entry in the occupation column for female passengers or for
children, a possible though not a certain interpretation of the intended
occupation where left blank is that of the occupation of the last adult male
entered above.
The recorder abbreviates many of the occupations listed in the manifest (e.g.,
"Labr" for Laborer, "Mech" for Mechanic, "Merch" for Merchant and "Sevt" or
"Servt" for Servant).
320-325 Surname appears to be either "Murbach" or "Meerbach".
327-331 Surname is possibly "Maller", "Muller" or "Moller".
334 Surname is Possibly "Brumer", "Briemer" or "Breimer".
342 Surname is possibly "Duhingen", "Deckingen" or "Deckinger".
343-344 Surname is either "Batz" or "Botz".
345 Surname is either "Deuchler" or "Denchler".
346 Surname is possibly "Duhingen", "Deckingen" or "Deckinger".
364 Surname is either "Gotz" or "Gatz".
369 Surname is either "Deckant" or "Deckart".
414 Surname is either "Hard" or "Hord".
416-421 Surname is either "Dietoch" or "Dietech".
430 Surname is either "Mayer" or "Meyer".
432 Surname is possibly "Krauger", "Kranzer" or "Krouger".
444 This passenger's Age was not recorded.
452 Surname is either "Best" or "Beste".
453-454 Surname is possibly "Woef", "Wolf" or "Waef".
459 Surname is either "Bachringer" or "Bochringer".
481 Surname is either "Hallstein" or "Hollstein".
487-490 Surname is either "Rasse" or "Rosse".
495 Surname is either "Euers" or "Evers".
499 Surname is either "Reichluser" or "Reichloser".
501 Surname is either "Bachle" or "Bochle".
504 Given name "Wilhe" for Wilhemine is usually a feminine given name, but
this passenger's Sex is clearly recorded as male with an Occupation of
"Merch". Perhaps the recorder, intending to write "Wilhm for Wilhelm,
entered "Wilhe" by mistake. Surname is either "Milz" or "Melz".
518-520 Surname is either "Solle" or "Salle".
521 Surname is either "Blatz" or "Blotz".
526 Surname is either "Vagler" or "Vogler".
528 Surname is possibly "Schunkers", "Schonkers" or "Schorkers".
529 Surname is either "Brackel" or "Brockel".
536 Surname is either "Schwer" or "Schmer".
539 Surname is possibly "Lusne", "Lusue" or "Lowe".
551 Surname is possibly "Mandarg", "Mandorg", "Mondarg" or "Mondorg".
554 Surname is either "Kalle" or "Kolle".
555 Surname is either "Gersteing" or "Gerstung".
560 Surname is either "Slager" or "Sloger".
567 Surname is either "Dauscher" or "Danscher".
