Hello, ugh, Ursula, don´t mix it up .... This was the jounger "May Flower", this ship started in 1841 on sea. In July 1846 this ship brought a lot of passengers from the region of Trier (the villages of Bekond, Schweich, Ittel, Alscheid,...) And in November 2dn 1847 from Antwerpen otheres from this area, including the Yakel (Jaekel) family from Wallhausen near Bad Kreuznach (just 80 miles east of Trier). Werner J.

Oh? How so ... the indifference to the possibility of more than one "Mayflower", or the ( possible ) statement that John didn't know his history? Strange that no retraction ( or "I'm sorry" ) is / was posted.

I have a Certificate of Arrival No. 2096 issued Port of London dated 2 September 1836. From looking at other certificates in the book there is normally one name to a page or perhaps one name plus a servant, etc. On Cert 2096 which includes my husbands ggg.grandfather there are possibly 8 people, all from Hambro (would this have been Hamburg?). The first is Johann Heinrich JACKMAN and the others are Claus MULLER, Carl Heinrich SCHLAUR, Johann COERS ?, Claus OTTO ?, Johann Heinrich BLANK(E), Claus Heinrich HOLTZEN & Johann *** CARDS? The signature of the bearer at the bottom is Johann Heinrich JACKMAN. Was it usual for one person to bring a group of men over to the UK ? Would they have all come from one village/town in Germany? Any information would be greatly appreciated. Regards Pearl -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.

Hi Pearl, How are you doing today? There were certainly independent agents or agencies who would recruit workers from "foreign" lands. However in this case, I am wondering about the term "Hambro" as it may refer to England itself. Hambro was a United Synogogue effort, if-you-will, based in London, who who sponsor Jewish refugees from other countries to immigrate to London. The term was first coined in 1704. These Ashkenazi communities were involved in this at various time periods in England. It was an Anglo Jewish ministry. Hamburg direct immigration lists begin in 1850 as based on information from the FHL microfilm reels. There may be earlier reconstructed lists which I may not be aware of at this time. There could actually be a place name of Hambro. I am just throwing this suggestion out there, as a possibility. Best of luck, Kathleen ________________________________________ --- Pearl <pearl.16@ntlworld.com> wrote: I have a Certificate of Arrival No. 2096 issued Port of London dated 2 Sepember 1836....

Dear Listers: I have found three sets of relatives that emigrated Hesse-Darmstadt via LeHavre, France. They arrived New Orleans, LA. in 1851, 1856, 1857. They all married Cincinnati, OH, in Reformed or Evangl. Luth Churches, each, about a year or so after they arrived. They emigrated as couples, but the ship's manifest lists the women by their maiden names. Is it possible three of my female relatives were not married, and traveled across the ocean with someone not their husband? I'm aware a marriage 'levy' was applied in Hessen and proof had to be made that a man could support a wife, but was it practice to have the maiden name on the manifest so a female could be located easier via document? Makes some sense, not much. Regards Elyse
