An asterisk (*) indicates either difficulty in deciphering the handwriting of the manifest or something in the Transcriber's Notes to which the reader should refer. A caret (^) indicates that the following letter in a word or name is superscripted. The entry "United States" in the native country and destination country columns is shortened to "U. States" for formatting reasons. "Male" and "Female" in the Sex column are shortened to "M" and "F" for the same reason. The transcriber numbers the passengers consecutively, even though they are not numbered in the original manifest. An "a" entered in place of a Passenger's Age means he or she is an adult who either didn't know or didn't wish to diclose his/her Age. 301-305 Family surname is recorded both as "Languth" and as "Landguth". 312 Family surname is recorded both as "Languth" and as "Landguth". 347-350 Surname is possibly "Jung", "Sung" or "Sunz". 365 Surname is possibly "von Geif" or "von Geiss". 371-374 Surname is either "Plat" or "Plas". 375 Surname is either "Trobit" or "Probit". 443 Name is either "F Peter" or "F Peter Jacobs".
