Hello, I am new to this list. I am trying to find more information on my great grandfather, William Yankow. He immigrated to the US from "Germany" in 1874. I found a handwritten ships passenger list with a William Jankow, 3 child, 2 adult leaving Hamburg 4 Feb. 1874. My great grandfather immigrated with his parents, William and Fredricka, sisters, Minna and Bertha. They arrived in Cleveland, Ohio by 1810, if not before. The 1810 Census lists Prussia as where they were all born. Later Census lists Germany. There were two more children born in Cleveland, Ohio. I have found the surname spelled many ways. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I have no other information as to what part of Prussia, churches etc. Thank you Barb
