Transcriber's Notes:

  A question mark (?) indicates a letter or a number that cannot be transcribed 
  definitely.

  A caret (^) indicates that the following letter in a word or name is superscripted.

  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.

  The transcriber numbers the passengers consecutively, even though they are not 
  numbered in the original manifest.


  5  Surname appears to be written as "Keller", but might possibly be "Heller".
  8  Surname is possibly "Papini", "Papim" or "Papun".
 10  There is a horizontal line drawn through this passenger's name and assiciated
     information.  This usually indicates that the person was not aboard when the
     ship embarked.
 14  Surname is recorded as "Openhimer", but might possibly be "Openheimer".
