I am searching for information about Peter John Dreher (b. 1848), his siblings Elizabeth, Louisa, Bena, and Gustavus, and their parents Johann Karl Dreher (b. 30 Dec, 1813) and Anna Katharina ___. They immigrated from Birkenfeld region of Oldenburg, and I believe it was in the mid 1850's or possibly as late as 1869. .
I am told there is a Johannes Dreher listed in:
MOERSDORF, ROBERT. Die Auswanderung aus dem Birkenfelder Land. (Forschungen zur Rheinischen Auswanderung, Part 1.) Bonn: Ludwig Roehrscheid Verlag, 1939, pp. 96-174 which alphabetically list emigrants from the Birkenfeld region to America and to other parts of the world in the approximate period 1820-1899 (Tabelle der Auswanderer des 19. Jahrhunderts).
Does anybody have this reference to check whether the wife and 2 children and mother might correspond to this family?
Does anyone have Dreher ancestors? I don't know how common a familiar name this was.
