Hello, my name is Bruce R. Bucholtz. My Great-Grandfather was born the year of 1838 came in Merklenburg-Schwerin,Germany. His name is John Christian Ludwig Buchholz. I am looking for some one with information on him. Thank you

Hello Bruce,
Bucholtz is unfortunatly a very common name in Mecklenburg (I�ve got some in
my family-tree, too but earlier) so you should try to find out where your
Gr.-grandfather lived there. Did you try IMAR? Perhaps they can help you:

Do you know the ship (passenger-list) and port where he left Germany?
By the way- his German name should have been Johann Christian Ludwig
Buchholtz- all very common given names.
Hope this will help you a little bit,
Heike

Hello Heike,
I want to thank for writing and telling me about IMAR,I will write to
them. No, I do not know the ship(passenger-list) or the port. I have looked
at the book " Germans To America " but could not find him.
Again, thank you
Bruce R. Bucholtz
