Transcriber's Notes:

  A question mark (?) indicates a letter or a number that can not 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 all the passengers consecutively 1 through 194, even
  though the recorder of the original manifest numbered the 1st Cabin passengers 1
  through 6, and the Steerage passengers 1 through 188.

  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.  "Male" and "Female" in the
  Sex column are shortened to "M" and "F" for the same reason.
