I am a new member and I would like to introduce myself; I am Peggy Hoermann Neill of Texas. My Gr Grandparents were: Heinrich Friedrich Johann Hoermann and Marie Albertine Werchen from the Winzlar/Rehburg/Wunstorf area of Hanover His parents were: Heinrich F. J. Hoermann(lb. l803 in Winzlar)and Catherine S. W. Wilkening. His parents were: Johann H. Hoermann and Marie Harfelbrink(Hasselbrink ?) The parents of Marie Albertine Werche(a)n were: Freiderich Werchen and Amalie _______. My other set of Gr Grandparents were August Klaus and Louise von Bieberstein. His parents were Conrad Klaus and Katrina Schmidz . I do not know his parents but her father was believed to be Heinrich Schmidz. Louise von Bieberstein was the child of August von Bieberstein and _____ Sophie (?). They were from the Escbruch area which I understand is now in Russian occupied Poland. I believe the Hoermann's came to Texas cl846-48 on the ship "Estafette" and the von Biebersteins came to Texas l852-54 on the ship "Weser". All said they sailed from Port of Bremen. Thank you.

Hello Robert, At first blush there is no Diedrich GRIEBEL to be found at any time in Illinois or on a passenger list. So what we have here is a spelling-of-the-name problem. Please always make it a habit to provide all of the information you have on your ancestor e.g. date of birth, name of wife, name of children, name(s)/various spellings used in first and subsequent censuses after their arrival, and anything else so that those who want to help you don't have to spent valuable time trying to locate the family on a census to determine how many family members were born in Germany and came on the same ship. Also, not everybody knows that Galena, Illinois is located Jo Daviess County. Furthermore, did they actually reside in GALENA proper (many precincts to search through) or did they live in a Township.

Things seem a bit more complicated in Ohio, or perhaps just your county. Where I live, all I do is go to the library website, click on databases, click on genealogy and there it is. I do have to put in my library card number, but that's it, I'm at Heritage Quest. Couldn't get much easier.

I was able to find my own ggrandfather (who immigrated from Western Germany also in 1852) on Ancestry.com Passenger Lists Record. Difficult to find since his name was spelled incorrectly. He sailed from Antwerp on the Elizaberth Denison 26 April 1852.....hope that this may be of some help, Marge ----- Original Message ----- From: "Robert J.

Myri, Due to unforeseen circumstances in my life, I have not been online. I am now trying to read and catch-up on e-mail. Would it be possible to send a copy of the Ganz German Empire 1871-1918? I know I am quite late, but I would really appreciate your consideration. Also, I would like to thank you in advance for your help. Thank you, Rose

Hi Susan, that is the problem as I only think he was born in Baden on Rhine, so I just posed the question "somewhere in germany" but I suppose the first place I would need to look would be Baden on Rhine.
