Transcriber's Notes:

  *  The usual route for the S.S. Western Metropolis was from Breman, Germany via Southampton,
     England and indeed she might have traveled this route on this her last voyage.
     See next Note. 

  *  The last voyage of the S.S. Western Metropolis started on 24th Aug.1867 and on 8 September 
     1867 she arrived at Cowes, Isle of Wight with a broken shaft and was delayed for nearly a 
     month for repairs. She left Bremen on her final crossing to Southampton and New York on 
     20 October 1867 having made a total of four round voyages on the North Atlantic route. 
     By this tine, ocean going paddle steamers were out of date and she was sold in 1869.

  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 a passenger's Occupation, such as 
  "Merch" or "Mercht" for Merchant, "Mech" for Mechanic and "Labr" for Laborer.

  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.
