Bremen, Germany via Southampton, England to New York
22 May
1886
DISTRICT OF NEW YORK - PORT OF NEW YORK
I, H. Hillmers, Master of the Steamship Eider, do solemnly,
sincerely and truly declare that the following List or Manifest, subscribed by
me, and now delivered by me to the Collector of the Customs of the Collection
District of the City of New York, is a full and perfect list of all the
passengers taken on board of the said Steamship at Bremen and Southhampton
from which port said Steamship has now arrived; and that on said list is truly
designated the age, the sex and the calling of each of said passengers, the
location of the compartment or space occupied by each during the passage, the
country of citizenship of each, and also the destination or location intended
by each; and that said List or Manifest truly sets forth the number of said
passengers who have died on said voyage, and the dates and the names and ages
of those who died; also of the pieces of baggage of each; also a true
statement so far as can be ascertained, with reference to the intention of
each alien passenger as to a protracted sojurn in this country. So help me
God. H. Hillmers. Sworn to this May 22, 1886, before me [signatures cannot be
read]
List or Manifest Of ALL THE PASSENGERS taken on board the
Steamship Eider whereof H. Hillmers is Master, from Bremen and Southampton
burthen 2952-71/100 brit. reg. tons.
Columns represent: Passenger number, Names, Age (years,months)
Sex, Calling, the Country of which they are citizens, location on ship, number
of pieces of baggage, other (seems to indicate city of origination or
residence). The column Intended destination or location has been omitted; all
listed as US of A. The column status of transit was eliminated; for most
passengers this column contained the words "int protr soj" which presumably
means intending protracted sojourn. The passengers who have US of A listed as
country of citizenship all have a line drawn through this column. The column
date and cause of death has been omitted because there were no deaths among
passengers 1001-1225.
