Transcriber's Notes:    

*  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.

*  Names were transcribed as seen regardless of spelling.

*  Passengers where numbered consecutively by the transcribers for ease of referencing. 
   For some reason babies were not numbered.

*  Luggage was not part of the original coloumns headers, this was added while the list was produced.

*  This list is a mixture of some German and some English. It is not clear why the luggage 
   was partly in English and partly in German (Kiste vs trunk vs casket). Some names in 
   the US and some occupations were also spelled phonetically.
