Transcriber Notes:
* is for error by the original recorder(s) or to note other information on the copy, added to the
transcriber's notes.
? Transcriber unable to read due to the quality of the copy, letters are too small, written over
or elaborate writing.
This Manifest indicates the ship left Genova on 2 April, Naples on 3 April, and Palermo on
4 April. Page number, 30 is stamped on the top of the given name column. Stamped on the bottom
of the same column is the number 29. Under last residence column is written what looks like a
1 a large Z, and a 1, or maybe a 171 and underneath a line a 16, or it maybe a 17 over 16.
Recorders, often used the word do or ditto for able to read; as all here are for columns from
nationality, race and country of origin. These are from the first line Passenger 325. Most
passengers also have dittos in columns able to read and write, occupation, passenger and
nearest relative residences, and destinations. This transcriber replaced all dittos with the
information referred to. In this manuscript, the Occupations, Labourer is the British spelling
for Laborer; and Farm Lab. was written for Farm Laborer.
Passengers 500, 501, 502, 503, 504, 505, 506, 519, 522, 524, 526, 527, and 528 are lined out.
This usually means that this passenger was not on this ship. They do not have a check before
their surnames, between age and gender, or Final Destination as all other passengers do. Some
information may be written in and readable, some columns have ditto marks or are blank. Of 30
passengers listed on this page, 17 made this trip.
This page is only part of the data for these passengers. Both pages maybe seen on the Ellis
Island Site.
The Italian language has no letter j, k, or w, x, or y. The letter h is only used with ch or gh.
