Transcriber's Notes:
A question mark (?) indicates a letter or a number that can not 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 all the passengers consecutively 1 through 616, even
though the recorder of the original manifest numbered the 1st Cabin passengers 1
through 32, and the Steerage passengers 1 through 584.
The recorder of the manifest often abbreviates given names by writing the first
few letters of the name, then skipping letters and then writing the final letter
as superscripted. In these cases, the transcriber uses the symbol (^) to indicate
that the following letter was superscripted, i.e., Mich^l for Michael, Marg^t for
Margaret, W^m for William, etc.
The entry "United States" in the native country and destination country columns
is shortened to "U. States" for formatting reasons.
