Transcriber's Notes:
 
An asterisk (*) is used to refer to an item in the transcriber's notes, which explains the entry.
 
A question mark (?) is used for letter/letters that cannot be read because of the quality of the document.  
Where possible a suggestion is given in the Transcriber's Notes of what the letter/letters may be.
 
A circumflex (^) is used to indicate missing letters in a name or word. The original lister showed 
this by writing the final letter smaller and raising it above the line.
 
There is no Captain's Statement with this manifest.  The column, "Died on the voyage" was eliminated from this 
transcription as there were no deaths on this passage.
 
The original lister did not number the passengers, nor did he provide a recapitulation at the end.  It may be
a partial manifest and should the remainder be made available, it will be added to this transcription.
This manifest is very lightly written and is difficult if not impossible to read at times.

 
 31     Initial could be C.M. or E.M.
 33     First name appears to be Stom.  
 35-38  Surname: Ferstie, Fustie, Fuster, Ferster.
 43     Surname:  Schweiter, Schwerter.
 46     Surname appears to end in “e” or “i”.  
 48-50  Could the first name of #48 be Rosalie?  Surname is just too light to read, but it may be Kohl, as is
        The previous entry; an “h” in the surname is fairly clear. Age is not recorded. If surname is Kohl, then 49 
        and 50 would be the same, as there are dittos.  
 80& 81 Possibilities:  Leippniger, Luppniger, Luffniger.  Also possibility of Leippinger, Luppinger, Luffinger. 
 92     This person, having a typically masculine name, is listed as a female.
 99     Surname possibilities:  Biegler, Beigler, Brigler.
100     Surname:  Fassler, Fansler.
102     Possibilities:  Mahley, Mahlig.
105     It is a conjecture that the surname is Marschader.  Otherwise it may be a single surname listed.
