Hello Pretoria,
I found my ancestors in the volumes of "Germans to America" . I
believe that there are 53 volumes. My ancestors came in 1852. In the
volumes they listed name of passenger, name of ship, occupation and
destination as well as place of nativity. When I found the name of the ship
and year I then was able to obtain the departure information as well from the
FHC.
Good Luck,
CHS
