Transcriber's Notes:

*   The use of an * indicates an omission or error made by the original
    recorder,  or some other reason to look in the transcriber's notes.
?   The use of a ? Indicates a word or letters that could not be read, due 
    to the quality of the original document.
*   I observed that only one Female has an occupation recorded, entry #120, 
    and not all males occupations are recorded either.  If the Occupation 
    is blank it was not recorded by the original recorder and no ditto 
    marks or wavy lines appear in the blank occupation columns.
*   There were no deaths or births recorded on this portion of the list.

380 Kr?mer Johannes could be an a or u making this name either Kramer 
    or Krumer.
386 Krayer Christina no age was recorded by original recorder.
396 Grunwald Adam no age was recorded by original recorder.
397 Rohrig Johannette recorded as a M by use of a ditto mark, caryover from 
    previous page.
398 Steng Catherina recorded as a M by use of a ditto mark, caryover from 
    previous page.
414 Krauss the double ss recorded in the old style fs         
419 ?auer Nicolaus  looks like an S    
428 Bitsch Nicolaus no age was recorded by original recorder.
430 Pa??estsch Christian the ?? seems to be a double letter looking like a 
    tt(but no cross) or ll, all above line.
431 Pa??estsch Margaretha the ?? seems to be a double letter looking like a 
    tt(but no cross) or ll, all above line.
434 Grom? Margaretha may be m or in.
445 Huberko? Bernhurd may be an m or w
455 Brunmer Wilhelm no age was recorded by original recorder.
461 Pfuff Johanna no age was recorded by original recorder.
463 Pfeiff Peter no age was recorded by original recorder.
469 Schorpss Maria the double ss recorded in the old style fs.
470 Schorpss Victoria the double ss recorded in the old style fs.
483 Hess the double ss recorded in the old style fs.               
488 Reiss the double ss recorded in the old style fs.               

*   These next 4 entries looked like they were added on to the list by 
    another person, the hand writing is obviously of a different person and 
    illegible, might be crew. Also, these 4 were recorded in the following 
    format:  Given name first, Surname last.
489 David Me???  Could be Meridis but between the quality of the original 
    and the penmanship I couldn't tell.  I am guessing that occupation 
    abbreviated as Mich is machinist
490 George Jacob
491 Frank Beer
492 Eliza Griffin occupation S???? all letters above line, maybe Seut or 
    Sent or Sect

493 George Bank Go?? The last entry returns to original recorders 
    handwriting and format returns to last name, first name. Possibly 
    Goss, Age is unreadable first number is 6, occupation looks like hanage,
    no ditto marks or lines to indicate country from or to.

*   The last 3 entries include these totals in the original recorders 
    handwriting and the captains signature.  I am noting here that the 
    totals do not agree with the number of passengers transcribed.
