is there any one who could possibly tell me if they can read the name on this manifest? i believe it says "father Habetler ????? " . Maybe it's a hungarian name that i can't recognize? thank you, christy

Nr.6 in list looks like to be from same place in Hungary like Horvatlovo or so. maybe others in list with places Horvallo, Horvatto, Hopatlogo means the same place? looks like a misspelling....

Horvatlovo

I think the name you are looking for is "Lipot" - Hungarian for Leopold

aah,ok - you mean the firstname.
now, for a german maybe can be Leopold, but don´t know really, as the letters would not be correct in all parts. not good to read all :o( at moment no idea for another german firstname...

Lipot
