New Ulm was one center of emmigrants from Wolfurt in the 1850ies to 1880ies in the first wave of emmigration. Therefore you will find there many names which are common in Wolfurt and in the Bergen county area, which was the main emigration area of the embroidery crisis driven emmigrants, which was the second wave of emmigration.

The only indication I have is, that his cousin Rudolf Kalb, who emmigrated to the USA in Oct. 1911 declared in his immigration declaration, that he wants to go to his cousin Eduard Bildstein in West Hoboken, NJ. Before 1908 the embroiderers had a good income at home and no reason to emigrate. In 1912, when Martin and Josef immigrated into the US they declared to go to Albert Schwaerzler, a friend from Wolfurt in W. Hoboken; so their brother was not there any more. And the mayors secratary book tells me, that Eduard has got the citizenship of Lochau, a village 10 miles from here and died there on 04-20-1961 Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

I have corresponded with Heir Heim in Wolfurt. He is related to the Bildstein family (and to me). My relative, Bernhardt Gantner was the son of Anna Maria Bildstein and Franz Gantner. Anna Bildstein was the daughter of Bernhardt Bildstein and Magdalena Doerler/Dorler. Are you related to these Bildsteins? I understand that Franz Gantner made church vestments. I will see what I can learn about Martin and Joseph. From the census records it looks as if the brothers lived together for quite some time. I will try to find some information about Eduard, too. So far I have found no wives or children (except for the descendants of Anna Bildstein). Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
