I would like to find anyone that might have records to Ships list or Immigration lists. I am looking for My Great Great Grandparents that came form Oldenburg to America and lived in Charleston, South Carolina
Henry Steenken
Anna Dorothea Albers
Both may have come over around 1849.
I am not sure of the date...
Any help would be appreciated. Also I have a book "Bethany Cemetery Inscriptions" I would be glad to do lookups for any one free. Just let me know.
Thanks,
Cathy

Check the website for the Immigrant Ships Transcribers Guild. You can
search for ancestral names to be found on immigrant ships. Keep in mind
that it's an ongoing project and only about 6500 ships are transcribed out
of probably 10 or 20 times more than that number to be done yet.
Go to a search enging (like Google) and type in ISTG and you'll get to their
home page.
Cathy,
The historical museum in Bremerhaven has a database with emigrants
from Germany to other countries, below a link to the englisch information
page.
