Transcriber's Notes:
*This manifest is hand-dated as January 3, 1869; however, it is filed at National Archives
among ships which arrived in January, 1870. It is believed that the date recorded on the
first page of the Manifest is incorrect. Indeed, a cover page which accompanies the film
from NARA lists the date as January 3, 1870. This ship is also recorded as minnesota18690103.
*The column "Died on voyage" has been eliminated as there were no deaths recorded for
this voyage
In the column Occupation, the lister used the abbreviation "lab" for laborer and "spin"
for spinster.
An asterisk (*) is used to denote items that are further explained in the Transcriber's
Notes.
A question mark (?) is used to indicate letter/letters that are missing or could not be
read because of the quality of the document. Where possible a suggestion of what the
missing letters could possibly be is listed in the Transcriber's Notes.
6 Given name is spelled as a male's name, but sex is listed as female.
17 Given name is spelled as a male's name, but sex is listed as female.
53-58 Surname: Kerhamnel, Kerhanmel, Kerhammel
73 Given name. Probably Michael
111 Given name: Feneria, Feveria
112 Surname: Sebastian, Seberstian
