   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 series of dots indicate illegible characters due to damage to the manifest, number of 
   missing letters cannot be determined.

   eliminated.  It is assumed this would have been the United States.
