Greetings to one and to all:
Were there common departure points in Germany for people who lived in
the Saxony area? Say maybe Hamburg or elsewhere? Someone mentioned
Berlin as an exit point for the time period 1854-1857. Was this
mentioned somewhere? I am working on narrowing down where my gggpa,
Julius Frederick Justin and his wife Louisa, left Saxony from, the
ship, where they entered the US and settled in LaCrosse, WI. I have cash
receipts from the US government for land bought on 15 June 1855, and
land patents for the purchase dated 20 February 1857 signed by President
Franklin Pierce. I need ideas, I havent located any first papers, or pa,
or naturalization, or declaration of intent. County archives can't find
anything prior to 1904. I have the US 1870 and 1880 censuses from mfilm
with there names and birthland, and their parents birthland. What can I
look for next besides reading all sorts of passenger lists? Some hints
would be appreciated. Thanks!
