I'm pretty sure there is a connection back there somewhere & it will be fun to figure that out. I know that there were 2 Tobias Jantz on the same shiplist that my GGgrandfathers was on, I don't know yet if they were related- sure they were but I don't know the relationship to each other they were, one was abt 10 yrs or more older than my ancestor. There were also alot of Unruh's on board. I found a shiplist in the book, A Brother in Need is a Brother in Deed...or something like that with out looking up my records. I've met another Jantz researcher -Bill Ikerd this summer who might be of more help on finding the connection & will forward your note on to him if you send me more info on names & dates in your lines-& He lives in Kansas. We met at a Jantz family reunion in Moore OK & I gave him some info on my Jantz lines from Julia- one KS census listed her as July... They lived around McPhearson, maybe near the Lone Tree twp? until abt 1901 when Tobias & family came to Meno area of Major Co OK. Julia Jantz married in 1903 in Caddo Co OK to Clayborn King & listed Johnson on her marriage license. Love to find out more on your Jantz lines. Thanks again for the note.
