Transcriber's Notes:

  A question mark (?) indicates a letter or a number that cannot be transcribed
  definitely.

  The transcriber numbers the passengers consecutively, even though they are not
  numbered in the original manifest.

  The designation "Dan Brig Katie" in the Captain's sworn statement at the
  beginning of the manifest likely implies that the Brig Katie is of Danish
  ownership or registry.

I found the sister of an ancestor on this transcription.
Andrea Wolfenberg was sister the Lagerte Wolfbenberg,
my Ggrandmother – why she was on this ship without family
at 12 yrs old and what happened to her is a mystery I would
like to solve

Thanks for you help,
