    S. S. Austrian No. 65 arrived in Quebec on August 31, 1874
    'Peter Lowin [Loewen] 49 labourer; Elizabeth 51 wife; Jacob 11 3/4 child; Jacob 8 child; Peter 8 child; Justine 10 child; Aron 20 labourer. Comments: Profile/Kleine Gemeinde Family #40. Hochstaedt/ER.'

    The editors compared Quebec Passenger Lists to Hamburg, Germany Passenger Lists, and where the information was different, included the Hamburg information in square brackets [ ]. Hochstaedt/ER refers to a village in the Mennonite East Reserve in Manitoba, Canada.

    In the published book, the ship's arrival date is given as August 31, 1874. In an online version (created 2001), the Table of Contents indicates an arrival date of August 20, while the detail page indicates August 31, 1874.
