As far back as I've gotten is 1800 in Osnabrück where Christian Rudolph KRÜGER is born to Christian Ludwig Kaufmann KRÜGER and Anna Regine WESLING . As an adult Christian Rudolph marries Catharina KUHL and lives in Lingen where they have six children. In 1850 Christian Sr. emigrated to America alone, their only son Rudolph Christian KRÜGER was 10 yrs old in 1856 when he sailed on the Louis Henry out of Bremen to N.Y. With him was Friedrike, Minna, Louise, Henriette, and Ernestine. He was my grgrGrandfather, He married twice once to an Irish woman named Marianne they had two children John L. and Edda F. then he married Katarina FULOREINSKY/ROSINSKY of Posen, Poland and had two sons. James Rudolph and Frank John, he died in Boston MA in 1896. If you are connected please Email me Thank you, Clara
