Hello Mary, First of all, I don't see any 'tt' in the word - I read it as Pogner. I hate to burst your bubble but the column that contains the word "Pogner or Poyner" is the OCCUPATION column not the 'Place of Origin' column. If you look on the other pages of the ship's manifest you will find the same occupation for immigrants from Hessen. I assume C. Gustavus the captain of the Adler must have made an error when he transfered the data from the departure manifest issued in Bremen to the one he presented to US customs in New York. You can rest assured there is no town or village in either Hessen or Bavaria by the name of Pogner/Poyner. Ursula Mary Ann Dess wrote: > A big thanks to you.

Hello Mary, The English definition of the historical occupation of Bogner or Pogner is "archer". For additional information you may want to view the woodcut of a Pogner/Bogner at http://wiki.genealogy.net/wiki/Bogner You say you can't find out where Xavier Dess died? In what state/county/township did he settle after his arrival? Ursula. Mary Ann Dess wrote: > A big thanks to you. I will try to track that villate down now. This man > is the family mystery.
