Thankyou, All the data I have is from IL census & tombstone dates.Otherwise family input is all I have to go on. Most of that is diluted by time & the passing of stories from one to another. I will keep plugging away at it. Karl came the closest so far.

Schmidt Hi Phil, You need to find the information here. Records are not centralized in Germany. Try looking at the manifest for other passengers. Many times people came over in groups. Perhaps, their location of origin may be mentioned. Do you have all the birth, baptismal, death and burial records for the whole family? You can try looking at the census records at their neighbors. If they came over together, they very well might have moved on together. You might also try looking to see if any of them showed up in the newspapers.
