Thank you again for material and questions about Karl Jaeger. I will try to answer all here that I can. My mother died in 2009 and I am very sad that I didn't find Uncle Karl before she died. We have no relatives that I know of in Germany. She was possibly not remembering exactly when Uncle Karl came to the U.S. I assumed he used his first name because that is how she referred to him, so I am not sure about that. The family was living in Frankfurt, but he could have moved to another city, then boarded a boat to the U.S. He was born June 6, 1885. He had one brother, Wilhelm Karl Heinrich Jaeger (b 7/31/1887) and one sister, Charlotte Ottilie Katharine Jaeger (b 6/14/1889). Thank you, Bettina
I want to respond to you with more answers, but having a 5 year old playing today, and waiting on him, I cant concentrate and do justice to you thanks for responding, I am excited to know you ________________________________ From: Bettina <bat@centurytel.net> To: germany-passenger-lists@rootsweb.com Sent: Sat, March 5, 2011 7:40:29 PM Subject: [G-P-L] Karl Wilhelm Leopold Jaeger Thank you again for material and questions about Karl Jaeger.

Hello Bettina, I forgot to mention that when you go to the Ellis Island site, the first page that comes up is in fact the second page [data is on line 4]. After you close that page, click on 'next page', which is actually the first page.
