Transcriber's Notes:
* Asterisks indicate transcriber's notes.
? Question marks indicate illegible letters.
* "bond" in the heading is as written, and not a typo. Misspellings of
occupations, cities, states are also as written.
* The use of German "jahrs" for years, and "willingplace" for dwelling place
is as on original list. The last word may have been Luggage, but that column
has been cut off in the copying.
* This manifest also has the port declaration at the end of list instead of
first page. The formatter has placed it at the top of the first page for
consistency with other ISTG lists.
* Only the "Betweendeck" passengers are numbered on the original manifest, and
letters have been assigned to the Cabin passengers by the transcriber. The
formatter has numbered all passengers consecutively for reference.
* This listmaker used the plural words "men" and "women" for all passengers
age one year and older, and "child" for those under 12 months.
* Handwriting on this list is good, and the radical misspelling of a few known
passengers' surnames is puzzling (see notes for numbers 243-251).
Passenger Notes:
* Surnames of the following passengers had umlauts:
Over o = 48, 58-61, 75, 125, 138-140, 141, 154, 164, 191, 192-196, 198,
229, 235, 238-242, 247-252.
Over u = 32, 57, 76, 118-119, 121, 123, 261-266, 268, 167-171, 204,
207-211, 231-234, 235.
# 37 - Surname should probably be same as #37.
#171 - Given name has an umlaut over the u.
#218 - Name should probably be Christiana or sex male.
#231 - Occupation Muller (umlaut over u) = a Miller.
#254 - "1 waggon" may relate to extra baggage they were charged for.
#258 to #260 - Although plainly written as Wardenburg, surname should be
Bahrenburg (see Personal Notes)
#261 to #266 - Correct surname is known to be Hinken. "1 waggon" = extra
baggage?
Personal Notes:
The following families were joining relatives at a German settlement in the
Cole Camp area of Benton County, Missouri and adjoining Morgan and Pettis
Counties. (see also German Immigrants):
#254-#257
Herman Henry and Tibke (Bahrenburg) Harms family from Tarmstedt, Hanover.
Settled near Cole Camp, where Herman died 1892. An older son John is believed
to have preceded them. Anna #256 married Otto Kuhn 1865, died 1899. Gretje #257
married Herman Schnakenberg 1857, but died early 1860s. Not shown on the
manifest is a daughter Maria born on the voyage. She was baptized June 30th at
Holy Cross Lutheran Church northeast of Cole Camp, and recorded as
(translated): "born Apr. 23, 1850 on the Bremer ship Ernestine." She is also
listed as born "at sea" in the 1850-1860 Benton County censuses. Maria married
John Wassung of Pettis County in 1867.
#258-#260
Diedrich and Gretje (Prigge) Bahrenburg and daughter Catherine from
Tarmstedt, Hanover; parents and sister of #255 Tibke (Bahrenburg) Harms.
Diedrich apparently died soon after the voyage. Gretje was an invalid
residing with the Harms family in Benton County 1870, and died 1873.
Catharine married John F. Feldman Jr in 1854 and died 1892.
#261-#266
Harm and Tibke (Postels) Hinken family from Altenbülstedt, Hanover. Settled in
northwest Morgan County, Missouri where Harm died 1875. Two older sons, George
and Louis, had preceded them to America. Originally Lutherans, they joined the
nearby Lake Creek German Methodist Church in southeast Pettis County; Harm is
buried in Lake Creek Cemetery. A later congregation formed in Morgan County
north of present-day Stover became known as the Hinken M. E. Church. Henry
Hinken #263 married Margaret Gehrs in 1857, died 1918, buried Versailles,
Missouri. Gretje (Margaret) Hinken #264 married Henry Wiechen in 1853, died
in 1926, buried in Lake Creek Cemetery. Peter Hinken #265 married Meta (Martha)
Postels in 1862, died 1914, buried in Hinken Cemetery. Herman Hinken #266
married Mary Helmig 1865, died 1921, buried Hinken Cemetery. Herman's funeral
was the last service held by the Hinken Church. A copy of this manifest was
provided for transcription by Evelyn Hinken Gerhart a great-granddaughter of
Peter and Martha Hinken.
The Ernestine started life in 1834 as the American ship COLUMBUS. A history and sketch of the ship may be viewed at Michael Palmer's website.
