Hmmm.. the first one looks like it is probably not the one, as far as family recollection goes she travelled alone and her father was already here.

The second one is the one I saw earlier, but some of this data does not seem to match the scanned manifest. The birthplace name seems way off from what is written...actually I think the birthplace column was blank but the village name that she came from and where her mother Hannia is listed as living on the manifest did not match that name even closely.

Either way, it may be prudent to look at both. One thing I've learned doing family history research is that family memories are often pretty far off the mark!
