Transcriber's notes:

A question mark (?) indicates indecipherable material.
An asterisk (*) indicates further information in these footnotes.

Passengers numbered 1-4 are listed as travelling in "Intermediate."
Passengers numbered 5-82 are listed as travelling in "Steerage."
Passengers numbered 83-98 are listed as travelling in "Upper Cabin."

Passenger Notes:
27      Final letter of surname is problematic: Name could be Rambeu,
        Rambel, or Rambec.
53-59   Surname has an umlaut over the "u" so may be spelled Krueger.
68      First letter of surname difficult to decipher--may be L or S
        making the name Lee or See.
82      Place of origin is obliterated either by crossing off or ink
        blotting.
96      Surname looks like it may be Creeland or Cruland.
