Any additional information would be helpful.>> Hi, In Albert Robichaux's new book, "German Coast Families: European Origins and Settlement in Colonial Louisiana", the following is noted: "A search in the available ship lists of the German immigrants was unsuccessful in finding information determining the ship of transport of Johann Jacob FOLT,. Among the names found on the November 14, 1720 manifest of Les Deux Freres were Jean George FOLS, and Julienne, his wife." There is much information in this fantastic volume about the ancestors of Johann Jacob Foltz in Ramstein, and many other German Coast settlers. Good Luck in your research.
