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.

*  In the column for country from which passengers are coming there are designations 
   such as Hessen C. and Hessen D.--most likely meaning from Hessia Coburg or Hessia 
   Darmstadt, two different German duchys.
*  The scribe for this list had a very clear handwriting style and was careful to note 
   family/marital relationships, usually omitting the last name after the first entry 
   and just entering:  son, daughter, wife, mother, etc. He was not consistent. Sometimes 
   the relationship is in parenthesis, sometimes not.
*  In a few instances, the destination state is misspelled.  I have transcribed it as 
   found, i.e:  Virginien, Massachussets, or also the occupation Taylor= tailor.
*  The German names ending in "man" usually have just one "n" at the end of the surname.  
   Common usage in German is for a double "n" i.e. ...mann. It was usual for a writer to put a
   line above one "n" to indicate a doubling of the letter, but that doesn't seem to be the case
   on this list.

Jacob F Volkenant, a well-known and well-to-do retired farmer of Lac qui Parle county, now 
living in Madison, is a native son of Minnesota and has lived in this state all his life, having 
therefore been a witness to and a participant in the wonderful progress and development that 
have marked this region during the past generation.  He was born in Scott county, this state 
July 4, 1857, son of Frederick and Mary Volkenant, natives of Germany, who came to the United 
States in 1855, some years after their marriage, and lived in Scott county for a short time.  
In 1857 they pre-empted a tract of land in Carver county, Minnesota, where they established 
their home.  In 1865 Frederick Volkenant was drafted for service in the Union army during the 
Civil War and died in service in that same year at Little Rock, Arkansas, leaving his widow and 
seven children, Helen, Hugo, Jacob F, and Emma, Anna, Theresa and Mena, the first two of whom 
were born in Germany and all of whom are living save Emma.  In 1868 the Widow Volkenant married 
George Mock and to that union one child was born, a daughter Mary.  Mrs. Mock lived to the great 
age of eighty-six years, her death occurring in 1915.
