Transcriber's Notes:

Column 6 -- Passengers 186 - 274 are all traveling from England.
Colunn 6 -- Passengers 275 - 372 are all traveling from Germany.
Column 7 -- All passengers are traveling to the United States of
            America.

#189 - 190 - Surname could also be Couson.
#192 - 198 - Surname could also be Couson.
#199 - 200 - Surname could be Belton.
#201 - 202 - The first letter of the surname is most likely a "V".
#217 - 224 - These passengers are listed in the list twice.  The 
             first time, they are crossed out and then written in 
             again.  The second time they are listed in a group 
             after passenger number #270, then simply crossed out
             with hatch marks.  Since they are crossed out, they
             are not listed in this transcribing twice.
             These passengers are also bracketed together with the
             word "Labourers" before the names are hatched out.
             The occupation is rewritten the second time -- it
             appears to just say "Labor"  The bracket is not
             crossed out.
#227 -       The surname could also be Inscombe or Luscombe.
#233 -       The surname could also be Inare.
#261 -       This passenger was originally crossed off the list in
             position #239.
#280 -       The first vowel could be i or u with an umlaut.
#283 -       The surname could be Jns, an abbreviation perhaps for
             Johns, or else Ims.
#289 - 290 - One might assume the name is Reichenbach, but the
             letter where the "ch" should be is very strange.  It
             begins like a "d" but has no extension and has an
             opening at the top. It could almost be two letters,
             but not quite.
#295 -       The surname coule be Muns or Muirs.  The u could have
             an umlaut.
#297 -       The surname could also be Schaufest.
#300 - 307 - The surname could also be Jung.
#318 - 319, 321 - The surname could also be Runscher.
#323 -       The surname could also be Riessger.
#337 - 338 - The surname is difficult to make sense of.  The first
             letter is definitely S.  The second letter looks like
             a t, except that there is no clear cross.  The third
             letter is a clear o, but if the manuscript is faded,
             it could be an e.  The fourth letter is definitely a
             c.  The fifth letter looks like the second letter.
             The sixth letter lookes like an overwritten d.  It's
             possible that the fifth letter is a k and the sixth
             letter is a d.  The final letter is definitely an e.
             Possible other surnames - Steckle, Stockle, Sleckle,
             Slockle, Slockle.
#343 -       The passenger's first name could begin with the
             letter M.
#356 -       Surname could also be Kittenger.
#357 -       The mystery letter could be r or s.
#369 - 372 - The surname could also be Naglein or Nagleir.
