Transcriber's Notes:
* An asterisk indicates an error on the part of the original recorder, not
the transcriber, or is used to call your attention to additional information
in the transcriber's notes or in the passenger's informational paragraph.
? Indicates a letter or number which could not be determined due to the
condition of the manifest or handwriting of the original recorder.
^ Indicates the word may be abbreviated and/or that superscript was used for
the subsequent letter or letters.
* The following information was on the cover page of the manifest, and may
have been completed by the Immigration Officer:

* Each page of the original manifest was numbered from 1 to 30, but sometimes
there were only a few passengers on one page. The transcriber has renumbered
the passengers consecutively, placing 30 passengers per transcribed page
whenever possible.
* The date of arrival in New York appears to have been written as "6 December
1910", then the "6" was overwritten by "7".
* The Physician's surname was written Ludeke, with Luedeke being an
alternative spelling.
* Munster was written with the umlaut u, the university the Physician attended.
* The original recorder only completed the following columns for United
States Citizens except as noted in each passenger's paragraph: Name; Age;
Sex; Marital status; Occupation; Nationality, Race or People, and Last
Permanent Residence State (all were listed as United States Citizen, or
abbreviated U.S.C.); Final Destination; Whether having ticket for final
destination.
* Some passengers were listed as U.S.B. by the original recorder. The
transcriber believes this to mean United States Born.
* The original recorder's handwriting is very difficult to decipher. The
following letters look identical, or almost identical, in most instances:
a, e, i, o, s; z, j, g, y; m, n, u, v;
G, J, I, S, T; M, N, V, A
