I'm new to the list, have been reading requests of others regarding Switzerland. My g-grandfather, Joseph LAUBER, was born in Switzerland in 1840. I have nothing else as to location or exact date of birth. He married Elizabeth Boule ABEL who was born in Prussia 27 Mar 1847. They were married in Columbus Ohio and both died in Columbus Ohio. His declaration of intent to become a citizen of the US indicated that he entered the US 7 Oct 1865. A Joseph LAUBER was listed as a passenger on ship named "Newton" which sailed from Hamburg to New York, arrived on 4 Nov 1865. Age was given as 25, occupation farmer, destination unknown. I haven't been able to confirm he is my ancestor. Please advise my next step in trying to find Joseph. Thank you. Jo Anne Momburg JMomburg@aol.com
