Transcriber's Notes:

* An asterick (*) indicates an error on the part of the original transcriber, or 
  something unusual to describe or definition of abbreviated names.
* The question mark (?) indicates letters or words that cannot be read due to the 
  quality of the original document.
* Many first names were abbreviated as the following in alphabetical order:
  Aug. = August
  Chr. = Christian
  Fr. = Franz
  Friedr. = Friedrich
  H. = ???
  Heinr. = Heinrich
  Herm. = Herman
  Joh. = Johann or Johannes
  Wilh. = Wilhelm

Passenger:
#667  ? in surname has many possibilities due to faintness of the script: first letter 
      could be "F" or "T", ??? could be "man" or "tunn" = Futman or Futtunn or Tutman 
      or Tuttunn.
#677  ? in surname could either be "ec" or "ie" = Bouzeck or Bouziek.
#694  *Two dots over the "u" (a diaeresis mark)in home country
#705  *Two dots over the "u" (a diaeresis mark)in home country
#714  *A dot over the "o" in surname
#717  *A dot over the "u" in first name
#721  *Ditto marks indicate "wife," however, since it is a male my thought he is a son 
      or brother.
#727  *Appears to be a dot over the "u" in first name. Name might also be Pauline and 
      the transcriber forgot a portion of the "n."
#728  *Appears to be a dot over "u" in surname. *Occupation left blank
#741  ??? in first name could be:  "inn" or "um" = Ninna or Numa
#754  Occupation states "workman" but person is  female.  Females usually are designated
      "wife."  She has same surname as #753 and I presume she is his wife or sister.
#755  through #760 ? in surname could be either "r" or "o" = Krepcke or Koepcke.
#762  through #764  * appears to be a dot over "u" in surname
#768  ??? in first name looks like "u" with dot "ei" = Ernestuei?
#782  ?Occupation is unreadable
#795  ?  Surname could be Dersewe or Derseire or Derserve?
#802  Age is stated 11 months must be 1 month.  Sibling above is 10 months
#808  Passenger appears to have been crossed out - no explanation
#811  ? in first name appears to be an "l" = Ellise
