Posted on: Lutheran Roots Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/Special/LutheranRoots/86 Surname: Schilling ------------------------- I am looking for information about my Great Grandfather, Friedrich Schilling who immigrated from Prussia in 1852. He sailed from Bremen aboard the ship BREMERHAVEN, arriving in New Orleans on the 27th of October, 1852. He was born March 11, 1828 and came to join a group of Saxon Lutherans in Perry County, Missouri, who preceded him by immigrating in 1839 under the leadership of pastor Stephans. The ships manifest does not list a village or town that he came from. I would like to know where he came from and if there are any surviving family that I might contact.
