List or Manifest of all the passengers taken on board the Steamship P. Caland, whereof E. Deddes is Master, from Rotterdam, burthen 2528 tons.
Columns represent: Names, Years, Months, Sex, Occupation, The country to which they severally belong. There are three other columns on the original manifest; The country of which they intend to become inhabitants, Died on the voyage, Part of the vessel occupied. Since the column 'The country of which they intend to become inhabitants', is all US of America, it has been omitted. No passengers died during the voyage, so that column has been omitted. All except two of the passengers were in the Steerage section of the ship, so that column has been omitted.

In 1879, Johannes Landewe (49) was a farmer near Haaksbergen, Overijssel
Province in the Kingdom of Holland. He sold his farm to his brother,
Hendrik Landewe. Then with his wife, Hendrika Groot Kormelink (41)
and six children: Anthony (13), Johanna (11), Bernadina (9), Marie C.
(8), Herman (5) and Gertrude Katherine (3) all immigrated to America.
They embarked in Antwerp, Zuid Holland Province, Kingdom of Holland,
on the Ship "P. Caland" of the Netherlans - America Steam Navigation Co.
The family arrived in New York, NY., on April 11, 1879, and eventually
settled near Laflin, in Liberty Township, Bollinger Co., MO.
