There was also a passenger on that ship named Johan Michael Christman who I believe is my ancestor. The passengers were from Wuerttemberg. I have no idea where in Wuerttemberg Michael Christman was from. From genealogy conferences I have attended, I have learned that I should try to find the place of origin of others on the ship then check those places and the surrounding areas for Michael Christman. Do you know where your Michael Pfrang was from? I would appreciate having any information you have on him. Thank you. Carole Irene Crismon Coook
