Hello, Do you know the first names of any of the BOHNE people who bought the farm? On the 1834 Ship Orient's passenger list, there are both spellings of Meier. Are you sure it was 1838?

Johann Diedrich Meyer we have his family back to the 1500's. A BOHNE bought the farm of my Kolling family approx 1868-69 in Schaumburg just down the road from the MEYER farm.
