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, Heinr for Heinrich, Bernh for Bernhard, etc.
The recorder did not always use ditto marks to indicate "same as above". Many
occupation entries are left blank and the reader is confronted with the problem of
interpreting the recorder's intended meaning. 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 most 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.
