*  An asterisk indicates an error on the part of the original recorder, not the transcriber, 
   or is used to call your attention to additional information in the transcriber's notes.

?  Indicates a letter or number which could not be determined due to the condition of the 
   manifest or handwriting of the original recorder.
 
^  A ^ followed by a letter indicates that the letter was superscripted.

*  Passenger numbers assigned by this transcriber to aid search engine.

*  All passengers intended to reside in the United States so this column is not shown.


32         Occupation is unusual-maybe a hat presser.
45-47 & 57 Occupation-makers of loose fitting gowns
58         Last two letters of surname are hard to read, name may be the same as passenger 
           no. 47, Hinnesse.
