Transcriber's Notes:

The use of an * indicates an omission or error made by the original recorder.
The use of a ? indicates a word or letters that could not be read, due to quality of original document.
There were no deaths on this passage, therefore the death column has been eliminated.
All passengers stated the country in which they intend to become inhabitants is the United States,
 therefore this column has been eliminated.
Passengers 46 through 58 were listed separately and numbered 1 through 13.
Captain Land's middle initial appears to be either an "L" or an "S".  The Signed looks strongly like
 an "S" and does not have the characteristic of the "L" in Land.

 3  Given name may be short for Hildegard
 8  Country to which the passenger severally belongs was originally written as Germany, then changed
    to Prussia.
14  Name could be Loughlin or Loughlan - the ? letter is not clearly open (a) but does not appear to
    have a dot over it (i).
15  Name could be Loughlin or Loughlan - the ? letter is not clearly open (a) but does not appear to
    have a dot over it (i).
17  Country to which the passenger severally belongs was originally written as Germany, then changed
    to Prussia.
27  Name could be Egni or Egna - the ? letter is not clearly open (a) but may have a dot over it (i).
37  Age could be 56 or 36 - copy looks like the first character might have been written over - unable
    to determine which was first.
38  Country to which the passenger severally belongs was originally written as Germany, then changed
    to Prussia.
42  Name could be McGroth or McGrath
47  Name could be Knopff or Kropff
