I am printing a family history book on my ancestor who immigrated from Bavaria. In researching this history I have been told that some of his family members came to America looking for him. My question - what information would be needed to determine if, indeed, some of his family did try to find him. I assume you would need a name and approximate date that the family came to New Orleans? Anything else, or is it possible to do this type of search? Thanks for your help. Nita Hebert
