Peter and Margaretha nee Cabberts Segner came to Texas on the ship 
"Auguste Meline" and settled in Indianola, Texas..in Dec. 1845..They had 
3 daughters: Catherine, Mary and Elizabeth..Elizabeth was my great 
grandmother who married Thomas Abner DeViney..
I can not find out anything on what happened to Peter or his wife, 
Margaretha..as to where they died or where they were buried.. If anyone 
has any information on them it will greatly appreciated!!

Correspondence 07/07/02 passenger #21 Halm
I would like information on Johann and Margaretha Halm's descendants, who 
came over on the August Meline in 1846 to Indianola. They moved their 
family to New Braunfels, Texas. From there, some went to Kingsbury, Tx.  

I am a great granddaughter of Lisette Halm, one of Johann's children. She 
married and moved to Houston. Any help on the descendants who stayed in 
New Braunfels, Kingsbury, Twin Sisters area would be appreciated.

Correspondence added 8-31-2006 Passenger 8, PETRI
I found my ancestors on the ship AUGUSTE MELINE which sailed in 1846 
from Germany to Texas. Captain was named Meyer. Under point 8 there are  
stated as passengers Petri, Johann Heinrich and wife Elisa, nee Aht, 
and children Johannes, Jacob, Catherina, Heinrich, Margarethe from 
Breitscheid, Nassau. I live in Breitscheid and my ancestors were the 
families of Petri.

I would appreciate further information from others researching the same
name.

Best regards,
Hans Becker
