Could someone please help be by doing a lookup on Germans to America. I can't find the name of the boat my ancesters came to America on. My Ancestor is Johann Phillip Boehl (Behl,Bohl different spellings) Wife Christina Schramm-Behl and their children Henry William 9 Years old at the time, Johnny died at sea. We know they arrived in New Orleans 1852 and arrived in Sangamon Cty. Illinois in July 1852. They settled and raised a family in Sangamon Cty. Illinois Family Legend says they came into America Thru New Orleans. This has not been confirmed. I understand they arrived on a small boat, maybe a work boat. Any help is appreciated. _Ginger316@AOL.Com_ (mailto:Ginger316@AOL.Com) ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.
