Transcriber's Notes:

Lister listed the given name first and then the last name. Transcriber has listed the last name 
first and then the given name for ease in reading.

The numbering system is not that of the original lister. He began listing the Steerage passengers 
at number one and started again with number one at the beginning of the First Cabin Passengers and 
then again at number one at the beginning of the Second Cabin Passengers.  Transcriber continued 
the numbers consecutively through to the end. Passengers 1-136 are steerage passengers, 137-163 are 
first cabin passengers and 164-203 are second cabin passengers.

A ? is used to indicate letter or letters that are unreadable due to the condition of the document 
or the handwriting of the lister. Every effort is made to list alternative suggestions when feasible.

*The column, Port of Embarkation was eliminated, since all passengers boarded ship in Hamburg. Also 
eliminated was the column "Date and Cause of Death", since only one passenger succumbed (#37) and 
this is noted in the transcriber's notes. The column, The Country of Which They are Citizens is 
designated on the form as pertaining to cabin passengers only and thus is not recorded for the 
steerage passengers. However, it is further noted on the manifest form that the columns Read/Write, 
Native Country, Last Residence, State Citizens of the U.S.A., Intended Destination-State or 
Territory are required for Immigrants or Passengers other than Cabin only. The lister, did however, 
continue to record this information for the cabin passengers. 

Occupations were abbreviated by the transcriber. Labourer=lab, maid servant=md.ser, merchant=
mercht, as well as other abbreviations which are noted in the transcriber's notes.

The column regarding the ability to read and write is listed as "y" (for yes to both), "n" (as no 
to both) or "-" for children too young to read in this list. The lister spelled both Yes and No 
completely; transcriber did not due to space constraints. This information was not recorded for 
cabin passengers, as it was not required.

The word "citizen" was abbreviated by the transcriber to "Cit", where it is applicable.
The column Native Country has the following abbreviations:  Mecklen (Mecklenburg), Wurtem 
(Wurttemberg) Branden (Brandenburg)

In the column Transient, In Transit or Intending Protracted Sojourn, the lister used the 
abbreviations T or PS and transcriber followed this pattern.

In the column "Location of Compartment, etc., lister abbreviated "forward" as "ford"; transcriber
used "fwd" due to space constraints. The lister listed cabin passengers as "cabin stateroom";
transcriber shortened this to "stateroom". For those in steerage, the lister had written "M.D."
above the compartment location. Perhaps this means "mid-deck"???

 11-15 The intention of these passengers as to a protracted sojourn in the United States 
     is not possible to determine.  The page apparently is ripped at this place.  For #11,Place going 
     to:  Could this be Great Neck, NY?
 27  Surname: umlaut "u"
 37  At the bottom of the list is the note that Carl Merten, 7m died September 18, 1893 of diarrhoea 
     infantum.
 38-40, 82-84  These passengers are crossed out. There is no indication of location aboard ship, 
     or baggage carried. It is presumed that these people did not make the voyage.
 44  Occupation: hairdresser
 53  Occupation: carpenter
 62  Occupation: locksmith
 87  Surname: umlaut "o"
 88 & 95  Occupation: locksmith
 89  Given name: The final "a" is written above. It is presumed that this name is Johanna.
 95 and 96  Last Residence: Wulfershausen
 97  Surname: umlaut "o"
100  Surname: Kantz, Kautz
106  Surname: umlaut "a"
110  Last Residence: Herstedvester
123  Occupation: shoemaker
129  Surname: umlaut "o". This passenger's name is crossed out. Since there is no on-board 
     location indicated, or luggage brought on board, it is presumed that this passenger did not 
     make the voyage. 
133  There is no age recorded for this passenger; however, there is a dash drawn. Perhaps 
     this was a newborn child, too young to even designate in months?
134  Last residence: Perhaps Bosarp?
135  Surname: umlaut "o". 
153  Occupation: clergyman
159  Given name: probably an abbreviation of Josefine
160  Surname: umlaut "o"
172  He is not noted as a citizen, but one wonders if this is an oversight? Occupaton: Scholar
175  Given name: probably an abbreviation of Margaretta.
183  This passenger's information is crossed out. He seems not to have made the voyage.
192  No occupation is recorded for this passenger, including the word "none"
196&197  Surname: Peutan, Pentan
203  Surname: umlaut "u"
