Transcriber's Notes:
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.
A caret (^) indicates that the following letter in a word or name is superscripted.
The recorder of the manifest sometimes abbreviates given names by writing the first
few letters of the name, then skipping letters and then writing the final letter as
superscripted. In these cases, the transcriber uses the symbol (^) to indicate that
the following letter is superscripted, i.e., Joh^a for Johanna or Barb^a for Barbara.
The entry "United States" in the native country and destination country columns
is shortened to "U. States" for formatting reasons. "Male" and "Female" in the
Sex column are shortened to "M" and "F" for the same reason.
Cajute or Kajüte (modern spelling) is a nautical term describing a ship's cabin.
It might be that the more spacious accomodations for Cabin Class passengers are
called something else such as "Saloon", or it might be that for Steerage Class
passengers it denotes those who had their own, separate cabin, as opposed to others
occupying larger shared spaces.
216-218 There is an umlaut above the "u" in surname "Muller".
223 Surname is either "Ambacker" or "Ambacher".
227-233 Surname is either "Ambacker" or "Ambacher".
237 There possibly is an umlaut above the "o" in surname "Worner".
241 There is an umlaut above the "o" in surname "Loffler".
246-249 Surname appears to be written as "Jtzel", but might possibly be "Itzel".
268 There is an umlaut above the "o" in surname "Wolffer".
269-271 There is an umlaut above the "o" in surname "Gobel".
292 There are horizontal lines drawn through this passenger's name which usually
indicates that the person was not aboard when the ship embarked. There is also
a notation assiciated with this passenger which states "Fee Southampton".
295 Passenger's Age is not recorded. Surname is either "Ackelbein" or "Aekelbein".
301-307 There is an umlaut above the "u" in surname "Huttner".
308 There is an umlaut above the "o" in surname "Hoffler".
316 It is very unusual for the recorder to list an Occupation such as "Shoemaker"
for a female. Female passengers are usually listed as either "Unmarried" or
"Woman". The recorded Occupation "Shoemaker" is possibly a recording mistake.
323-324 There is an umlaut above the "u" in surname "Suss".
325 Passenger has the masculine given name "Heinrich" and Occupation "Farmer",
yet Sex is recorded as "Female", likely a recording error.
329-332 Surname appears to be written as "Albricht", but might possibly be "Albrecht".
333-334 Surname appears to be written as "Meger", but might possibly be "Meyer".
347 There are horizontal lines drawn through this passenger's name which usually
indicates that the person was not aboard when the ship embarked.
369-377 The Native Country of these passengers is not recorded.
393 There is an acute accent mark above the "e" in surname "Andre".
400 Surname is either "Henrici" or "Henvici".
407-408 There is an umlaut above the "a" in surname "Bar". The Ages of these two
passengers are not recorded. The names of three additional passengers with
the surname "Bar", Fritz, a Merchant, his wife Marg and son also named Fritz,
all from Switzerland, are listed with horizontal lines drawn through their names
with a notation stating "Not on Board".
414 There is an umlaut above the "a" in surname "Neulander".
416 Surname appears to be either "Kabdebo" or "Kaldebo".
420 Surname is possibly "Stratter", "Stratfer", "Stratser" or "Strasser".
422 Surname is possibly "Lottum" or "Lotlum".
424 Surname appears to be written as "Tink", but might possibly be "Fink".
425 Surname is either "Bickmore" or "Bickmere".
428 Given name initial cannot be deciphered with certainty, but might
possibly be "J", "G" or "T".
