I checked the CD Germans to America and there is only one Tiefke: Passenger's Name: Ernstne. Tiefke Age: 24 Gender: Female Occupation: None Last Residence: Germany Date of Arrival: Apr. 17, 1885 Final Destination: USA Ship's Name: Nuernberg Manifest ID Number: 16057 Port of Embarkation: Bremen In a message dated 1/14/2007 8:29:41 P.M. Eastern Standard Time, elaineoneill1948@gmail.com writes: Judy, I have a Tiefke in my line. She was my GgGrandmother, and also from Prussia. I don't believe she ever made the trip to the US. I have her name from my Ggranparents marriage record in Detroit. She was the mother of August Schmult and wife of Francis Schmult. August's place of birth was given as "Strebelin, Prussia". If any of this sounds remotely familar or if you think there may be a connection, please let me know. I've never come across anyone else researching the Tiefke name. Elaine O'Neill
