Transcriber’s Notes:

* Under the column Departmental and Executive Orders, order 103 appears
  at the head of the page that lists Passengers 1328 thru 1357, order 104 
  appears at the head of the next page, Passengers 1358 thru 1387, order 105 
  and 106 at the top of subsequent pages. The number is not repeated or dittoed
  for passengers on the rest of each page. 
* Under the column No. of Persons, appears the number of persons in 
  each family group; all the data for the group is on the line for the
  first person and nothing except Age, Sex, and Name appear on the lines
  for other persons in that group. I have assumed the data on the first 
  line of the group applies to all members of the group.
* There were several instances where the sex listed in the manifest
  seemed to disagree with the name, e.g. Maria is not usually a male.
  It was transcribed as it appeared. 
* Under the column Deported, all were blank except for Passengers 
  1398-1400 and 1421.


661 - 665 Looks like Brovc but could be Brove.
742       Age of Lang, Franz could be 6 or 10.
754       Lenc?yinski; the ? could be a p. This section of the manifest was 
          handwritten and this name completely blacked out and rewritten.
892       Looks like Bolar but could be Bofar. The age was either 4 or 11.
1040-1042 Looks like Bessio but could be Bessis.
