Transcriber's Notes:

There were no births or deaths on this passage.

The country which they intend to inhabit for all passengers is the USA, so
this column has been eliminated.

The use of a ? indicates a word or letters that could not be read due to the
quality of the original document.

The use of a * indicates an omission, or an error made by the original recorder.


 2  Dorothea Petersen - Dorothea seems to be a female name, but the passenger is
    listed as a male laborer.
 3  Jacob???? Hansen - the unreadable letters are all small and may include an i.
 7  Wi?ka Steinberg - the questionable letter is small and may be a c.
10  K?visti J. Chason - the second letter goes below the line, and could be a j 
    or a y.
11  Ma?? Nilson - the third letter is small, and could be a u or an n. The last
    letter is tall and above the line, but it does not look like a d.
47  John Everett - the missing letters in the occupation are all small letters,
    but the word is not long enough to be engineer.
