Transcriber's Notes:
The use of a ? indicates a word or letter that could not be read, due to
quality of original document.
There were no deaths on this passage, therefore the "Date and Cause of Death"
column has been eliminated.
In the "Number of pieces of baggage" column, in the case of family groups,
the manifest shows the group baggage total after the name of the head of the
family and brackets the others to indicate sharing. I have used ( ) to
indicate that sharing after the name of each family member involved.
* Passenger 164 - Surname may be Sodergren or Sodergrew.
* Passenger 198 - First name may begin with a 'N' and ends with 'a' or 'o'.
* Passenger 218 - This passenger's baggage was noted as 1, but also was
included in the families group of luggage.
* Passenger 221 - Surname may be Bantelsen.
* Passenger 222 - First name may be Saren.
* Passenger 223 - Surname may be Barkelstalen or Barkilstalen.
* Passenger 230 - There was a ink mark that could have been a '1' immediately
after a clear '1'. This passenger was the top of a page
and suspect that the mark may have been a mark place at the
top of the column when the baggage was being added up for
the page.
* Passenger 239 - First name could be Tarnaal or Tavaal.
* Passenger 247 - Surname may be Altauson or Altanson.
