Transcriber's Notes:     
 
These passengers were numbered by the transcriber, not on original film.  

The Archives has the ship arriving on May 5, 1873, but on the bottom of one 
of the pages is the remark by an Inspector of the Port of New York with the 
date May 4/73.  The inspector's signature appears to be V J?ay  The confluence 
of letters and flourishes make the one letter indistinguishable.

The original list has two header pages.  The second one contains the initials 
H.N.O.  after "before me".  The original papers were constructed so that the 
page could be folded.  At those folds, the original broke apart and was put 
back together with tape before microfilming.  The tops and bottoms did not 
necessarily get back together correctly.

Any column where the information was repeated from line to line used ditto 
marks.  These ditto marks went from top half to bottom half of the page.  
Only columns for sex, age, and died on said voyage did not use ditto marks 
for repetitions.

"Country which they intend to become inhabitants" was the U States.  Therefore,
this column has been omitted.
All passengers on this page occupied Steerage so the "Accommodation" column
has been omitted.

The writer's "J" and "I" are identical.

Passenger Notes:
#547 - Last name second letter is a couple of dots giving appearance of half 
       high letter, no other hints.
#559 - Last name third and fourth letters may be one letter "m" making the 
       name Pumnicht.
#594 - First name - First letter is not formed like any other letter on list.  
       Starts like a "Z" but at the bottom curls toward the next letter.
#644 - Died on Passage April 30, 1873
#707 - First name: first 3 letters are definite followed by an elevated ink 
       blot resembling an "s".  This is followed by a space before coming to 
       a small "ch" then space for the dittoes for the last name.

Carl Sellnow is the great-grandfather of Paula Hook, who is the wife of the
transcriber of this ship.  Carl #717 and August #716 are brothers.  Their ages 
were incorrectly listed on the manifest.  Carl should be 26 and August should 
be 22.  What I have transcribed is what is on the list.  Please contact Paula
for further information.
