United States Transcriber's notes: * 298 * Lapover copies someone else has. * 299 * Lapover copies someone else has. * 300 * An abbreviated first name and no last name. He is connected to passengers preceding him on the list. * 301 * Though the first letter is in lower case it i definitely an F, followed by r and z. Does this mean an abbreviation for Franz? * 302 * An abbreviated name with a relationship to number 301. * 303 * Josa - This is written with a Capital Jos and an a at the top of the line. Since it is a female her name is probably Josephina. * 304 ** An?e - The e is written at the top of the line and this is an abbreviated name. This child and the next child seem to be travelling with the female Josa L and must be her children since there seems to be a relationship in the last name. * 305 * Child traveling with 303,304. * 306 * Related to 303,304,305, perhaps a grandfather. * 307 * While this is written as maisen I feel safe in assuming this person was a mason. * 308 * The first two letters of the second name are unclear. * 309 * The name is Cht with a superceded e or l. Associated with 308. * 310 * Looks to be Joh with a superceded Y. Suspected unlaut on second name. * 313 * Uncertain of second name . * 316 * This is written as Heinh which I believe is abbreviate form of Heinrich. 341 - Passenger's first name unreadable 344 - 1 year 9 months 364 - possibly Schailer 365 - possibly Leemiller 386 - possibly K instead of B 431 - passenger is 11 months old ? signifies a letter that is unreadable No one on this portion of the list was born or died. Transcriber's notes: * Question marks are used to denote illegible letters. * 445 * This must be an abbreviated first name. * 449 * This looks like an abbreviation of the name Christopher or some derivation thereof. * 450 There is no #450. It jumps from 449 to 451 * 457 * This looks to be an abbreviated John. The occupation of this person is abbreviated but I can't figure it out. * 457, 458 * Same occupation as 457. * 459 * The name is an abbreviation of something feminine. * 464 * Abbreviated name Chl. No occupation listed. * 467 * Strange initial for first name and second name unknown. * 468 * May be a Q followed by and e and s but rest of name unknown. * 469 * Undecipherable name. * 470 * Origination point unreadable. * 471 * The first initial of this person is unclear as is the strange squiggle over the initial. Unable to determine occupation. * 473 * The first name for this person might be a similar abbreviation like 472. Second name undecipherable. Origination point also undecipherable. * 475 * First name may be A or a Kng. Hillmann. Occupation unclear but it could be kegmaker. * 476 * Age unclear. Also origination point. * 477 * Could his occupation be maestro?
