Reviewer's Notes:

247 & 248: both are going to join their uncle, same name and same address. Therefore one can
           assume that they are related, possibly cousins.
248:       2-840059-2/17/41 is written in the occupation coloumn. This pertains to naturalization, 
           see see Annotations for more information.
251 - 253: the last name looks like Obrecht or Olrecht. All 3 passengers have an X in front of 
           their names which indicates that they are on the list for detained aliens or passengers 
           held for special inquiry (see below).
251 & 252: both these passengers have DEPORTED stamped in front of their names and DISCHARGED
           further along in the line. See PAGE 38, passengers 251 - 253 (Aliens held for special inquiry).
           The name is spelled Alrecht on page 38. 
252 & 253: nearest relative in Belgium should probably be grandfather.
253:       DIED IN HOSPITAL is stamped in the "Able to read/write" coloumn.    
255:       NON-IMMIGRANT ALIEN is stamped behind the name.
257:       NON-IMMIGRANT ALIEN is stamped behind the name.
