Transcriber's Notes:

*  An asterisk indicates an error on the part of the original recorder, not the transcriber,
   or is used to call attention to additional information in the passenger notes.
?  Indicates a letter or number which could not be determined due to the condition of the 
   manifest or handwriting of the original recorder.    
^  Indicates letters are omitted and the following letter is superscripted.

*  Though the sworn statment is the form for New York, the ship is found in microfilms for ships
   into New Orleans.  It may be that the captain only had port of New York forms. 
*  The writer of this list anglicizes many names (even some surnames). The more likely German 
   version may be found in footnotes for those passengers affected.  Also, the writer of the list
   is not the captain.  Compare his two signatures with the handwriting of the rest of the list.
*  It is difficult to determing occupations for this list.  The writer just uses ditto marks
   for every line, but at the head of each page lists an occupation for women or children.
