I have Aug and Caroline and their family leaving Germany as Saemerau, and landing September 27, 1887 in Baltimore as Semerau. I've created two pdf files that are pretty comprehensive for George Saemerau, August Semerau and Caroline Schroeder that I'm happy to share if you're interested. I can't send them as files from this. I've been in touch with some of the Semerau relatives, as well. hometown_writer@yahoo.com Lori Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
