Transcriber's Notes:
* The 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 notes below
* The carat (^) is used to indicate missing and/or raised letters
Numbers were assigned by the transcriber and were not on the original manifest
There were no deaths on board, therefore, the column was eliminated.
Mcht. could be an abbreviation for Merchant
3 Surname could be Hinger. - First letter written with much flair.
The "r" looks like the "r' at the end of Jr., just a little more flair.
4 Eloiza is what I see on the Manifest. All letters are above the line
with the exception of the Capital E and the z. Could possibly be the
Spanish equilivant of Eloise.
