The "?" mark indicates letters or words that cannot be read due to the quality of the original document. * There are "ditto" marks under the occupation of the first named in a family. It is the transcriber's opinion that these had no meaning since a 2 year old is not a Farmer. * The column "Sex" is marked by m or w which the translater believes is man or woman rather than male or female. * The column "Died on the Voyage" had no listings and therefore was eliminated. * The original document recorded the given name first and the surname second. * Passenger numbers assigned by transcriber for ease of reference. The orginal list was numbered first by cabin passengers (1-10) and then by steerage passengers (1-104). 1-2,4,43 Surname spelled with an umlaut "u", so may be spelled Schuett. 35 Occupation difficult to read. 47 Surname spelled with an umlaut "u", so may be apelled Schuett. 59 Passenger marked "m" under six, but has feminine name. 68 Passenger marked "m" under sex, but has feminine name. 74 Surname spelled with an umlaut "u", so may be spelled Krueger. 99 Surname spelled with an umlaut "u", so may be spelled Muellen. 106-107 Surname spelled with an umlaut "u", so may be spelled Mueller.
