Looking for Kernebeck, Efkemann, and Bessler who
emigrated to America from Alstaette, Westphalia. Some
of these people emigrated without permission. Does
anyone know how they would find voyage passage? Where
would I find their immigration date? Others went to
Holland. What would be the likely route they would
take? Amsterdam to London to America???
Thank you and have a great day:) Sylvia:)
