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.
*  Cabin passenger numbering began with 1.  Numbering changed for formatting purposes.


 33          Passenger names partially obscured by black line, probably due to  a crease in the original manifest.
 50 and 116  Both these passengers had a"+" at the beginning of their lines. both passengers were infants, less
             than 1 year old and the "+" might mean that they died on the voyage. 
144-147      Surname may be Laue
