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.

  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.
 

  4-5  Surname appears to be written as "Seonfeld", but might possibly be "Sconfeld".
 12    Given name cannot be deciphered with certainty, but might possibly be "Louis".
 21    Surname cannot be deciphered.
 28    Surname is possibly "Eeutsch", "Eutsch" or "Deutsch".
 32    Given name is faint and cannot be deciphered.
