Transcriber's Notes:

The columns, "Occupation", "Date and Cause of Death" and "Part of the vessel occupied by each
passenger during the voyage" was eliminated from this transcription as these columns were 
not filled in. 

The original lister numbered the passengers, but did not provide a recapitulation at the end 
of the document.  It is considered a complete manifest, however.

An asterisk (*) is used to refer to an item in the transcriber's notes, which 
further explains the entry.

A question mark (?) is used for letter/letters that cannot be read because of the
quality of the document.  Where possible a suggestion is given in the Transcriber's
Notes of what the letter/letters may be.

A circumflex (^) is used to indicate missing letters in a name or word. The original 
lister showed this by writing the final letter smaller and raising it above the line.

19    The passenger has a masculine name, but is listed as a female. 
21    Romanette, Ramanette. 
24    Winck, Wenck.
30-40 Maas, Moas.
57    Mall, Moll.
National Archives and Records Administration, Film M237, Reel 218, List 375.
