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.
The transcriber numbers the passengers consecutively, even though they are
not numbered in the original manifest.
Although originally transcribed as Sayonia, the name of this ship is
now believed to be the Saxonia. Please see attached copy of original
heading - Saxonia-Sayonia
The recorder of the manifest often abbreviates given names by writing only
the first few letters of the name, followed sometimes by a period but many
times without it. For some given names the recorder abbreviates it by writing
the first few letters then skipping letters and then writing the final letter,
i.e., Christe for Christine, Magdl for Magdalene, Margt for Marguerite,
Johe for Johanne, etc.
Occupations are only given in the transcription if the recorder entered them.
Since it is 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.
33 Passenger's Age is not clearly written, but is likely either 39 or 59.
34-40 Surname is either "Hoppe" or "Happe".
56 Surname is either "Valm" or "Volm".
84-87 Surname is possibly "Kluckhammer" or "Kluikhammer".
92 Surname is possibly "Kluckhammer" or "Kluikhammer".
93-97 Surname is possibly "Himsen", "Huusen", "Hansen" or "Hunsen".
98 Surname appears to be either "Rau" or "Ran".
118 Surname is either "Stacker" or "Stocker".
191 Surname appears to be written as "Heck" or "Heckl".
194-195 Surname is either "Vallinger" or "Vallenger".
198 Surname is either "Kost" or "Kast".
199-206 Surname appears to be either "Lachner" or "Lochner".
243 Surname appears to be written as "Knapp", but might possibly be "Krapp".
248-249 Surname is either "Pantner" or "Pautner".
256 Surname is either "Datz" or "Dotz".
261 Surname appears to be written as "Leinz" or "Lang".
262 Surname is either "Kalb" or "Kolb".
265 Surname is either "Vatter" or "Votter".
277 Surname is either "Johnen" or "Johner".
278 Surname is either "Wahlers" or "Wohlers".
288 Passenger's Age is overwritten and difficult to decipher, but appears to
be either 20 or 30.
292 Surname appears to be either "Klinzler" or "Klingler".
297 Passenger's given name is masculine "Henr", yet his Sex is recoded as "F",
likely a recording error.
329 Surname appears to be either "Hartkopf" or "Hortkopf".
331 Surname is either "Sarweide" or "Sorweide".
344-351 Surname is either "Benz" or "Beng".
