Arlene Your post caught my eye. Our ancestor, Michael Adolph, who was also born in Warenburg in 1852, arrived on the same ship in 1892. The ships manifest is on-line at Ancestry.com. I did a name search but didn't find anything. I figured the name was probably misspelled so I did a page by page search and found your family on page 16: Filip Feffer age 28, Marye age 31? , Filip age 4, Marye age 3, Catharina age 1. Their destination was Wisconsin - so everything fits, if you disregard the terrible spelling of the names. I will try to send you a link. My Michael Adolph's parents were Jakob Adolph and Elisabeth Gebel (Gabel). Michael had 2 younger brothers that I know of - Jakob (1860) and George (1861). These 2 brothers ended up in Roundup, Montana. I don't know how many Adolph families there were in Warenburg, but the 1857 Census is coming available soon I think, so that should be helpful. Hope this helps.

His wife was Maria Sophia Adolph, b.8-2-1860 in Warenburg, Russia, d.1938, Marlin, Washington. Three children arrived with them; Johann Philip or Philip John, JR, b. 1887 in Warenburg, Maria Christina,(Mary), b. 1889 in Warenburg, Katharina Margaret, (Katie), b. 1891 in Warenburg. They left Warenburg on 25 February, 1892 for Bremen. Supposedly, they boarded a ship, "Weimar" & arrived in Baltimore, MD, 30 March, 1892. They went to Wisconsin to live with a cousin for a year. They then moved to Nebraska. In 1902 they moved to Washington State. HELP! On one of my searches I read on-line that some of the ship lists were destroyed in Bremen. > Arlene Pfeifer Vedrich > > IN GOD WE TRUST > > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message
