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.
? The ? marks indicate letters or words that cannot be read due
to the quality of the original document.
* The sworn statement from the Port of Baltimore precedes the
sworn statement and passenger list from the Port of New York.
The ship appears to have arrived at New York, with some or all
of the passengers disembarking, then continued on to Baltimore.
The transcriber has included both statements by date.
* The Port of New York sworn statement was faded in places, which
made some words illegible. Parts of the statement were off the
edge of the copy.
* The intended destination or location of all passengers was listed
as U.S., so that column has been eliminated.
* One passenger died on the voyage. That column has been eliminated
and the information included in the transcriber's notes.
* The Transient or in transit, or intending protracted sojourn
column has been eliminated except for Cabin passengers. Only two
steerage passengers had information in this column, and that has
been added to the transcriber's notes.
* Baggage amounts were listed with the first person of each group
or family.
* The original recorder skipped number 593 when going from page
10 to page 11, then caught the error at number 623. The transcriber
has renumbered the passengers to adjust for this error.
* Each page of the original manifest has a recap of adults and
children by country of citizenship and a recap of passengers by
age and gender. Although some of this information is off the edge
of the copy, the remainder has been included.

Her details were - length 318ft x beam 40ft, clipper stem, one funnel, two masts, iron construction, single screw and a speed of 11 knots. There was accommodation for 80-1st, 120-2nd and 500-3rd class passengers. She was originally laid down as the "Europa" but was actually launched in June 1865 as the "Hermann". She sailed on her maiden voyage from Bremen to Southampton and New York on 17/12/1865. In 1872 her engines were compounded at Southampton and on 22/12/1892 she commenced her last voyage Bremen - New York. In 1893 she was sold and was scrapped in 1896.
