I am trying to find the birthplace of my g-grandfather, John Frederick Schildgen who came from the "Trier" area in 1845 to U.S. He was born about 1833 and came here with his Uncle and Aunt, (also) John Schildgen and his wife, Magdalena (Schmidt) after her parents had died. He was said to have had 2 siblings. Thanks for any help you are able to provide me in order to find this information. Evelyn - Michigan - USA
