Hello, I am looking for information on Emanuel Niel and his parents. Birth Place: Pensacola, Florida. Birth Date: July 30 1830. Father's Name: Anthony Niel Father's Birth Place: Cadiz, Spain Mother's Name: Anita Velero Mothers Birth Place: Mexico Are there any birth records or marriage records that might have this information? Emanuel Niel ended up in St. Louis, Missouri. St. Louis is where he lived the rest of his life. Pensacola is about 200 miles from New Orleans. Did many people travel to New Orleans from Pensacola? Did these same people head up the Mississippi River to St. Louis in those days? Thanks, Guy Sitler
