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 transcriber numbers the passengers consecutively, even though they are not 
  numbered in the original manifest.

  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.  Sometimes
  the final letter is superscripted and the transcriber uses (^) to indicate that the
  following letter is superscripted, e.g., Henr^e, Aug^e or Joh^a.

  The recorder did not use ditto marks to indicate "same as above".  Many sex and 
  occupation entries are left blank and the reader is confronted with the problem of 
  interpreting the recorder's intended meaning.  The transcriber uses the sex last 
  entered for a passenger above, and correlates this interpretation with whether the 
  passenger has a masculine or feminine given name.  Occupations are only given 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.

  The recorder of the manifest often abbreviates a passenger's Occupation, such as 
  "Merch" for Merchant, "Mech" for Mechanic, "Servt" for Servant and "Labr" for Laborer.
