My great-grandfather, Johann Proescher, came to this country in 1851 according to the 1910 census--from Hesse-Darmstadt. I have found his birth record, but have not been able to find either him or his wife on passenger lists that I've found. His wife was Katerina von Reuschling also from Hesse-Darmstadt. Can anyone find him? I believe he came into New York as I found him in a city directory in Buffalo, NY. Thanks Prasher is the current spelling of the name. Gretchen.
