Ann Thanks for looking. Is there a CD that lists Germans to America 1840-1849? Perhaps my dates are wrong and he could have arrived earlier??

He is reported to have arrived in the US from Bavaria around 1850-1852. I have not yet been able to verify this information. I have not had time to search ship records as yet and I know that locating him in Germany will take finding info about his town or village that he was from...and I have not yet had the time to spend researching that aspect.... What I am looking to see is if anyone a SCHINNERER in their tree that they have had any problems finding info for? I checked the Germand to America and there were two listed on CD#355 1850-1874: Passenger's Name: Martin Schinnerer Age: 18 Gender: Male Last Residence: Bavaria Date of Arrival: Aug 26, 1852 Final Destination: New York Purpose for Travel: Staying in the USA Ship's Name: Amelia Captain's Name: J.
