So you can concentrate your researches on the Hannover area.

Good luck!

Hi Brigitte,

I have the Rotterdam information. Does this mean I should look in the Hanover of Lower Saxony? It seems the city is Nurenkirchen. I've been told there is one in Hanover and Westphalia.

Thank you for your reply.

Hello Julie,
      Is that a typing error--Nurenkirchen?

    Were your Horstmanns Catholic by any chance? Many Catholics from the
Emsland area (which borders the Netherlands) moved to the Netherlands. That
may help to find their origin in Hannover. There are several Neuenkirchens
in the Hannover area.

This biography states that he was born 13 September 1816 in Halle, Prussia. The parents are Henry and Margaret (Schlerenkamp?) Horstmann.

Thanks, but not the same Horstmann. Mine didn't travel to US as Horstmann. Daughter married and came to Utah.

There is also a Neunkirchen in Rheinland Pfalz
