The original lister did not number the passengers. The original lister attributed the same occupation to each of the members of the family as that of the head of the family, a common practice in manifests. An asterisk (*) is used to refer to an item in the transcriber's notes, which further explains the entry. A question mark (?) is used for letter/letters that cannot be read because of the quality of the document. Where possible a suggestion is given in the Transcriber's Notes of what the letter/letters may be. A circumflex (^) is used to indicate missing letters in a name or word. The original lister showed this by writing the final letter smaller and raising it above the line. 24 Surname possibilities: Hanker, Kraker.
