Question

Category: Interpretation
Approval Date: 10/14/2026 4:23 PM
Family Surname: Eder (also Aeder, Ader)
Country: USA
Town: Ellis Island, New York
Date of Image: 28 Feb 1913

Click the picture to enlarge

This is a page of the S.S. Campanello passenger manifest (Rotterdam to New York, arrived about 28 Feb 1913, NARA T715 roll 2020, page 35). The image shows lines 12 to 14 across the sheet, left to right. Line 13 (number in the left margin) is a male, age 20, from Austria. A volunteer index reads him as "Wolf Eder" and lists a cousin named "Eder".
Could someone read, for line 13: (1) the full name as written, (2) the name and address of the relative or friend he was going to join in the US, (3) his last residence and the final destination? The scan is faint, so partial readings or best guesses are welcome. Thank you.

I have found the document on Ancestry, where it is better readable.

family name: Eder
given name: Wolf
age, sex, marital status: 20, male, single
occupation: tailor
able to read/write: yes, yes
nationality: Austria
race or people: Hebrew
last permanent residence: Austria, [Cobuna ?]
nearest relative in home country: father Hersh Eder, [Cobuna ?], Austria
final destination: New York
passage paid by: himself
money in possession: 30 Dollars
name and address of who he is joining: cousin Heli Eder, 561 Clevelandstreet, Brooklyn, N.Y.
good health, no objections

However, I wasn't able to find the locations in Europe, the Austrian Empire was huge at that time...
