Transcriber's Notes:
The designation "Br. Bark Atalanta" in the Captain's sworn statement at the
beginning of the manifest likely implies that the Bark Atalanta is of Bremen
ownership or registry.
A question mark (?) indicates a letter or a number that can not be transcribed
definitely.
An asterisk (*) indicates either difficulty in deciphering the handwriting of the
manifest or something in the Transcriber's Notes to which the reader should refer.
The recorder of the manifest often abbreviates given names by writing only the first
few letters of the name, followed sometimes by a period but many times without it,
e.g., Jos for Joseph, Fr. for Friedrich, Henr for Henrich, Bernh for Bernhard, etc.
For some names the recorder abbreviates it by writing the first few letters then
skipping letters and then writing the final letter, i.e., Henre for Henriette,
Wilhe for Wilhelmine, Magda for Magdelena, and Johe for Johanne, etc.
"Man" and "Woman" in the Sex column are shortened to "M" and "F" for formatting
reasons.
The recorder left many of the Occupation entries blank and did not use ditto marks
to indicate "same as above". As a result, the reader is confronted with the problem
of interpreting the recorder's intended meaning. The transcriber only lists
Occupations in the transcription if the recorder entered them. Since it was common
for recorders not to make an entry in the Occupation column for female passengers
or for children, a possible though not a certain interpretation of the intended
Occupation where left blank is that of the Occupation of the last adult male entered
above.
1-2 There is an umlaut above the "u" in surname "Kusterer".
3-4 There is an umlaut above the "u" in surname "Schungel".
46-48 There is possibly an umlaut above the "u" in surname "Kuhnlenz".
49 Surname is recordfed as "Endres", but might possibly be "Enders".
54 There is an umlaut above the "o" in surname "Gopfert".
61-69 There is an umlaut above the "u" in surname "Muller".
96 Surname appears to be written as "Rurup" or "Burup",
with an umlaut above the "u".
104 There is an umlaut above the "u" in surname "Grunwald".
110 First letter od surname is overwritten and cannot be deciphered with certainty,
but name is possibly either "Liska" or "Fiska".
119 Surname is either "Kacmarek" or "Kacmarck", with an umlaut above the first "a".
128 A notation associated with this passenger implies that she died on the voyage.
The notation states "the third day of Decbr", likely the date that she died,
but the time and cause of death are not recorded on the manifest. Also, the
words "day of Decbr" have a line drawn through them, perhaps invalidating the
date of death.
