From: Kaesemein@aol.com Subject: Re: [CASTLE-GARDEN] Re: Looking for arrivals Date: Mon, 5 Aug 2002 09:19:21 EDT Hi Sandy, Would you have the time to check your CD to see if my grandmother's 3 sisters and 1 brother are listed? They emigrated from Bramsche, Hannover, Germany before Ellis Island opened. Would the record give the ship name and port of entry? I put the name they went by in parentheses. Margaretha "Louisa" Larberg emigrated 1881, age abt. 22 Carolina Maria Wilhelmina "Lena" Larberg emigrated 1884, age abt. 15 "Minnie" Larberg emigrated 1887, age abt. 16 (I haven't been able to find her full name yet.) Wilhelm Friedrich "William" Larberg emigrated 1888, age abt. 13 (he may have lied about his age) Thank you so much for any help you can give me on this. Marilyn in Ohio
