Transcriber's Notes:
? Indicates letter(s) which cannot be read clearly.
* Cover sheet and top of sworn statement show arrival date in Baltimore of
21 July 1883. Signatures here and at end of list are dated 20 July 1883.
Perhaps that is the date the ship arrived in New York.
* Country claiming allegiance is U. S. America for all passengers.
That column has been omitted here to save space.
* 8 - Given name transcribed as spelled, probably should have been Anastasia.
* 10 - Umlaut over "o" in Goyke.
* 19 - Part of the age is obscured by a dark check mark. The passenger is
less than 1 year old, as the age is written as ?/12.
* 30 - Occupation looks like carrier.
* 31 - Occupation looks like carrier.
* 36 - Missing letter(s) look like "u" or "ei": Dallugel or Dalleigel.
* 37-38 - Surname might be Karnota.
* 39-40 - Surname looks like Wroblensky or Wroblewsky.
* 50 - Age obscured by check mark, could be 1 month or 11 months.
* 58 - Occupation transcribed as spelled.
* 61 - Surname looks like Aromann, possibly Aramann
* 73-80 - Surname looks like Bonge or Bange
* 82 - Surname might be Hoefs.
* 92-94 - Umlaut over "o" in Schroder.
* 96 - Surname looks like Krojudtowsky, possibly Kroyudtowsky, Krojedtowsky,
or Kroyedtowsky.
* 98-101 - Umlaut over "u" in Kruger.
*100-102 - Listed as females, names would appear to be male.
*110 - Age is obscured by check mark.
*111 - Occupation transcribed as spelled.
*114 - Given name looks like Trecyrila.
*120 - Ditto mark indicates occupation is same as #119. This is probably an
error as all other females have an occupation of "none".
*121 - Occupation left blank. Ditto mark on previous line may have been
intended for this passenger.
*124-126 - Surname looks like Musser, could be Meiser. Not clear if the
mark above the letter is a dot or just a stray mark.
*148 - Surname could be Lonigen or Longen. There is what appears to be a
flourish on the end of the first "n", which is not connected to the
"g". But there is a faint mark above the "flourish" that could be
the dot of an "i".
*168 - This part of the page is very dark and difficult to read. Only the
top of the first letter can be read. It resembles the writer's letter
"P", possibly "J". The second letter is unreadable.
J?inghamer, P?inghamer
*169 - This part of the page is very dark and the missing letters in the
name cannot be read. The last part of the occupation is also
unreadable but, based on the first part, it may be schoemaker (shoemaker)
*174 - Surname could possibly be Banu.
*187-188 - Surname looks like Druozas
*190 - Surname might be Duvel or Druvel. Umlaut over missing vowel.
*191-192 - Surname looks like Kassera, possibly Kossera.
*195-199 - Surname could be Kissch or Kessch. Not clear if the mark above
the first missing letter is a dot or just a stray mark.
*196 - Abbreviation of Wilhelmine. Listed as male, name indicates female.
*201 - Missing letter might be "V", Viergutz
*203-204 - Surname looks like Kobetitsch, possibly Kobelitsch.
*205 - Surname might be Nerad, possibly Verad.
*208-211 - Missing letter looks like a short "l", possibly Molas.
*213 - Abbreviation of Wilhelmine.
*235 - Occupation transcribed as spelled, probably baker.
*239 - May be an "r" following "G". Not clear if it is another letter or
just a flourish on the "G". Could be Gushe or Grushe.
*242 - Part of age is obscured by check mark. Based on writer's pattern, it
is probably 3/4 (9 months), but could be 3/12 (3 months). Ditto mark
indicates passenger is male, but name appears female.
*247 - Umlaut over "o" in Bohner.
