Transcriber's Notes:
A question mark (?) indicates a letter or a number that cannot be transcribed
definitely.
An asterisk (*) indicates either difficulty in deciphering the handwriting of the
manifest or something in the Transcriber's Notes to which the reader should refer.
A caret (^) indicates that the following letter in a word or name is superscripted.
* In the Captain's sworn statement at the top of the manifest, the name of the vessel
is incorrectly recorded as "Steamship Deutschland", another of the vessels operated
by the The North German Lloyd Line.
The recorder of the manifest sometimes abbreviates given names by writing the
first few letters of the name, then skipping letters and then writing the final
letter as superscripted. In these cases, the transcriber uses the symbol (^) to
indicate that the following letter is superscripted, i.e., Tho^s for Thomas,
Sam^l for Samuel, Barb^a for Barbara, etc.
The recorder did not always use ditto marks to indicate "same as above". Many
occupation entries are left blank and the reader is confronted with the problem of
interpreting the recorder's intended meaning. 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.
508 Surname is either "Veid" or "Veed".
509 Entry in Native Country column is either "Gall" or "Gull".
514 Surname is either "Zwaschker" or "Zwuschker".
517 Passenger's Age is either 28 or 38.
523-525 Surname is either "Landeck" or Laudeck".
531-534 There is an umlaut above the "u" in surname "Muller".
535-536 Surname appears to be either "Virn" or "Vurn".
538 There appears to be an umlaut above the "o" in surname "Knoll".
542 Passenger's Age is not recorded, perhaps implying that his Age is the same as
the passenger above, 0y9m.
561 First letter of surname cannot be deciphered with certainty, but name might
possibly be "Sudmeyer" or "Tudmeyer".
562 Surname appears to be either "Scholler" or "Schaller".
580 Passenger's Occupation is overwritten and cannot be deciphered with certainty,
but appears to be either "Coatmaker" or "Coachmaker".
591-594 There is possibly an umlaut above the "u" in surname "Luhlke".
614-618 Surname is possibly "Larra", "Larva", "Leirra" or "Leirva"..
623 There is an umlaut above the "u" in surname "Muller".
624-625 There is an ink blot obscurring the last few letters of the surname making the
transcription uncertain, but the surname is possibly "Muhlenhardt" with an
umlaut above the "u".
627 Surname is either "Mammanger" or "Mammauger".
635-637 Surname is either "Auderle" or "Anderle".
638 There appears to be an umlaut above the "o" in surname "Bohm".
651 Fourth letter of surname is overwritten and cannot be deciphered. Name is
possibly "Gruahut", "Gruchut", "Grunhut" or "Grushut".
653 Surname is either "Stadte" or "Steidte".
656 Surname is either "Seinrers" or "Seinrus".
659 Surname is possibly "Nagel", "Vagel" or "Vogel".

670 Surname is either "Hener" or "Heuer".
678 Given name is either "Christa" or "Chrusta". Surname is either "Grunhage or
"Grunhuge" with an umlaut above the "u".
687 There is an umlaut above the "u" in surname "Muller".
689 Passenger's Occupation is recorded as "Lac-smitt", possibly implying "Blacksmith".
690 There appears to be an umlaut above the "u" in surname "Grunstein".
691 There appears to be an umlaut above the "u" in surname "Frohmuller".
702 There appears to be an umlaut above the "o" in surname "Volkle".
725 Surname is possibly "Partkum", "Parthum" or "Partkuur".
729 Passenger's Occupation is recorded as "Wewer", likely intending "Weaver".
730 Surname is possibly "Manchat", "Manchut", "Manshat" or "Manshut".
733-734 Surname is possibly "Schobat", "Schobut" or "Schobeit".
736 There is an umlaut above the "u" in surname "Muller".
