Transcriber's Notes:
A question mark (?) indicates a letter or a number that cannot be transcribed
definitely.
An asterisk (*) indicates either difficulty in deciphering the handwriting of the
manifest or something in the Transcriber's Notes to which the reader should refer.
A caret (^) indicates that the following letter in a word or name is superscripted.
The transcriber numbers the passengers consecutively, even though they are not
numbered in the original manifest.
The recorder did not use ditto marks to indicate "same as above". Many sex and
occupation entries are left blank and the reader is confronted with the problem of
interpreting the recorder's intended meaning. The transcriber uses the sex last
entered for a passenger above, and correlates this interpretation with whether the
passenger has a masculine or feminine given name. Occupations are only given in
the transcription if the recorder entered them. Since it was common for recorders
not to make an entry in the occupation column for female passengers or for children,
a possible though not a certain interpretation of the intended occupation where
left blank is that of the occupation of the last adult male entered above.
The recorder of the manifest often abbreviates given names by writing only the first
few letters of the name, followed sometimes by a period but many times without it,
e.g., Jos for Joseph, Fr. for Friedrich, Henr for Henrich, Bernh for Bernhard, etc.
For some names the recorder abbreviates it by writing the first few letters then
skipping letters and then writing the final letter, i.e., Henre for Henriette,
Wilhe for Wilhelmine, Magda for Magdelena, and Johe for Johanne, etc.
The recorder of the manifest often abbreviates a passenger's Occupation, such as
"Merch" or "Mercht" for "Merchant", "Mech" for Mechanic and "Labr" for Laborer.
19 Passenger's Age is obscurred by damage to the manifest in this area.

Correspondence 05/18/2005 passengers #209-211 Klapp
Passengers #209 Henr. Klapp, #210 Wilhe Klapp, #211 Baby Klapp (Germany).
I believe this may be my grandfather's brother from Istha, Germany. My
father told me that when his father was a young man (b. 1849), he told
the story of an older brother who went to America and was never heard
from again. The year would be around the correct time, as my grandfather
would have been 19 years old at the time, and Henr. Klapp was 26 years old,
and Henr. is a family name. If any one has any information, please email me.
Thank you! Mary Lee Klapp
