Transcriber's Notes:
The Column, "Died on Voyage" has been eliminated as there were no deaths on this
voyage.
A question mark (?) is used for letter/letters which could not be read because
of the quality of the document. Where possible a suggestion of what this
letter or these letters may be is given in the transcriber's notes.
An asterisk (*) is used to explain further in the transcriber's notes.
The numbering system is that of the transcriber, not of the original lister.
He began his numbering with the first cabin passengers at #1 and then began
again at #1 for the second cabin passengers, and again at #1 for the Steerage
passengers. The transcriber continued the numbering consecutively through the
document.
The transcriber has also reversed the listing - the original lister listed
title, given name and the surname. The transcriber listed the surname first
for ease in alphabetizing.
10 Surname: Chultour or Chultow
15 Surname: It is impossible to read these letters since the "y" of the
name above comes down over. It appears that an "i" or "u" is the third
letter - there is a dot, but may be a dot from the copier.
46 Over the name column is written 372/187; these numbers refer to the
naturalization process. See http://www.jewishgen.org/InfoFiles/Manifests/
for an explanation.
55 Surname: Fenser, Finser, Fierser
171-174 Surname: Suck, Suek
192 Surname: Zebekott, Zebskott
197 Surname: The "g" from the above name comes down thru the 3rd letter, so
it cannot be clearly seen; the next one is indistinct. Possibilities:
Haack, Haask, Hansk, Hanck
202 Surname: Well, Will, Wilk, Welk
207 Given name: Possibly Jon
225 This passenger perhaps was mistakenly listed as "female". The first name
is a male one and the occupation is listed as "laborer"
234 The "y" on the name above comes down, so that it is not possible to see
if there is a letter where the question mark is. The name possibly may be
merely Gassieve.
235-238 Surname: Barreran, Barrevan
239 Surname could be Fan, Fau
240 The middle letter/letters of the surname are smudged and therefore unreadable
Also, one cannot determine if the fourth letter is a "j" or "g". Bergman,
Berj??an, Berg??an
241 There seems to be an extra letter in the surname, but it cannot be read.
Possibly the name is merely Daujean.
242 & 243 Surname possibilities: Rasni, Rami, Rarni
National Archives and Records Administration, Film M237, Reel 432, List 1576.
