Can anyone help me find my ggrandmother and her family, they were living in Schifferstadt, Canton Speyer, Rhemish, Baveria in 1840. My ggrandmother was Maria Anna Schmitt born Sept. 29, 1840 and her brother Martin was born in May 1850. I think the fathers name was Josef and the mother was Felicitas. They immigrated to New York City in 1856. In 1864 they were living in Staten Island, N Y. Any Help will be appreciated. Ruth Tomlinson
