Transcriber's Notes:

*  An asterisk indicates an error on the part of the original recorder, not the 
   transcriber, or is used to call your attention to additional information in the
   Transcriber's Notes below.

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

^  The use of a ^ indicates that the letter/letters following are superscripted.

The written destination for all passengers was United States and no deaths were recorded 
on this voyage; these columns have been omitted.

All ditto marks on the original manifest have been replaced with the actual words 
indicated.

The manifest scribe discontinued entering the Country of Origin and the intended 
Destination on manifest pg 4, mid-page (psgr #162).

The transcription preserves the original spelling.

The manifest did not include psgr #s; they have been added by the transcriber.

Beginning on pg 5 of the microfilmed manifest (psgr #186), the Sex and Occupation were 
recorded by a second scribe.

The manifest scribe used a Germanic letter resembling 'fs'; to aid in reading, these 
have been transcribed to 'ss'.

The year in the date noted at end of manifest is probably meant to be 1851, not 1951.
