Transcriber's Notes:
A question mark indicates material that was indecipherable.
An asterisk indicates further information found in the passenger notes.
A caret ^ indicates letters written in superscript, usually the ending of an
abbreviated name.
For some reason this ship is mislabeled as the Landiourden in some sources. The
statement at the beginning of the list clearly reads "Landwuhrden" in two
places. Also, Landiourden, makes no sense from a German standpoint, whereas
Landwuhrden translates into something like Proud Land.
Explanations for some of the terms used in this list(some are rather obvious):
Allabani = perhaps Albany
Baiern or Bayern = Bavaria
Braunschweig = Brunswick
Brickleger = brick layer
Buffela = most likely Buffalo
Coper = cooper (barrel maker)
Dubucue = most likely Dubuque (Iowa)
Hessen = Hessia
Illionois = Illinois
Luisvilla = most likely Louisville
Milwaukie = Milwaukee
Newyorck = New York
Penselvanien = Pennsylvania
Posen = a province of Prussia
Preussen = Prussia
Sachsen = Saxony
Telor = most likely should be tailor
Wurtenberg = Wuerttemberg (Wurtenberg with an umlauted "u")
7 Given name may be Bosalia or Rosalia.
29 No given name listed here.
52 Surname has an umlauted "u" so may be Mueller.
53-54 Surname has an umlauted "o" so may be Loescher.
92 Surname has an umlauted "u" so may be Krueger.
97 Surname has an umlauted "o" so may be Boese.
102 Surname may be Windmeier.
105 Surname has an umlauted "u" so may be Tuerk.
118-122 Surname has an umlauted "u" so may be Gruetzner.
123-124 Surname has an umlauted "o" so may be Boehme.
126 Given name should probably be Johann since Johanne is the feminine form.
139 There may be an umlauted "a" in the surname thus it could be Schaefer.
155 Surname may be either Kuhm (with an umlauted "u" thus Kuehm) or Keihm.
202 "Wife" designation must be incorrect here.
204 Gender designation must be incorrect here.
206 "Wife" designation must be incorrect here.
208-209 Lady and "gierl" designations must be incorrect here.
211-212 Places of origin are inconsistant here.
