Transcriber's Notes:
The use of a ? indicates a letter or letters illegible to the transcriber
due to quality of original document.
The use of an * indicates unreadable letters or an omission or error made
by the original recorder.
For sworn statement:
At the very top of the manifest it says Compagnie Generale Transatlantique.
Generale has an acute accent above the first and second " e ".
It also says The Passenger Act 1882 just before district and port.
There is a tear or smudge on the manifest, but this word is probably
" District ".
SS was written " S/S. " both times on the manifest.
Le Havre was written with a line above the " a " in both instances.
There is a tear or smudge on the manifest, but the missing word is
probably " the ".
There is a tear or smudge on the manifest, but the missing letter is
probably " d " -- dates.
There is a tear or smudge on the manifest, but the missing letter is
probably " a " -- alien.
Part of a typed letter is missing in this word, but it is probably
"t " -- protracted.
The Deputy Collector also wrote his initials, " TJD ", in the left
column near his signature.
There is also a French version of the column headings (with no
accents that are visible) below the English headings: Numeros, Noms, Age
(Ans, Mois), Sex, Profession, Pays auxquels ils appartiennent,
Destination ou localite auxquelles ils ont l'intention de se rendre,
Emplacement du Compartiment ou espace occupe, Nombre de colis Bagages, De
passage, ou en transit, ou Projetant un sejour prolonge, Date et cause de
la mort.
* To save space, Second Class was put above the passenger list by transcriber
as all passengers #143 - 304 are in Second Class.
* The last column indicates whether the passengers are transient or intended
protracted sojourn. All passengers are Transient except for #'s 147, 190,
and 274 which are listed as P.S. (protracted sojourn).
* There were no deaths on the voyage, so that column has been eliminated.
* Passenger # 167 Acute accents over both e's in first name.
* Passenger # 173 Place going to is Altoona, Pa.
* Passenger # 174 Last name could be Smoberdorf or Sinoberdorf.
* Passenger # 186 M is the sex of this passenger written by the
original list taker.
* Passenger # 199 Umlaut over a in last name.
* Passengers # 204 - 206 Umlaut over u in last name.
* Passenger # 220 Place going to is Altoona, Pa.
* Passenger # 229 Umlaut over a in last name.
* Passenger # 241 Acute accents over first two e's in first name.
* Passengers # 243 & 244 Place going to is Monroe, Wisc.
* Passenger # 244 "Do" is written in under Jacob (passenger's first
name on previous line). Since "F" is written in
the sex column, and she follows Jacob Strahm on
the list, one could assume this passenger is Rosa
Strahm, Jacob's relative, and that the list taker
just mixed up the first and last names (like with
passenger #302). All other passengers are listed
first name first and last name second. These two
passengers are also from and going to the same
place.
* Passenger # 245 Place going to is DuQuoin, Ill.
* Passenger # 251 Place going to is Waterbury, Conn.
* Passengers # 252 - 258 Place going to is Altoona, Pa.
* Passengers # 270 & 271 Last name has acute accent over e.
* Passenger # 273 Place going to is Pittsburgh, Pa.
* Passenger # 274 Place going to could be Attica, Ind.
* Passenger # 280 Umlaut over o in last name.
* Passenger # 282 Place going to is Schaller, Iowa.
* Passenger # 283 Acute accent over e in first name.
* Passenger # 289 Acute accents over e's in first name.
* Passenger # 302 "Do" is written in under Cosmo (passenger's first
name on previous line). Since "F" is written in
the sex column, and she follows Cosmo Kriletic on
the list, one could assume this passenger is
Francesca Kriletic, Cosmo's relative, and that the
list taker just mixed up the first and last names
(like with passenger #244). All other passengers
are listed first name first and last name second.
These two passengers are also from and going to the
same place.
