       Gerken. They are known to have settled in Benton Co, MO where both 
       married and died. Their older brother Claus Gerken had immigrated to
       Benton Co. in 1848.

#215-#220 This is the family of Johann Schnakenberg along with his brother
       Claus. They are known to have settled in Morgan Co, MO. The passenger
       list gives their home as Ottersberg but that was only the district.
       Their home village was Westertimke.

#254 - Anna Borchers is believed to be same person identified as Anna Borjes or
       Borges in 1853 Benton Co, MO marriage records to Johann Harms.

These Schnakenberg families were not directly related but Adelheid, the wife of
Cord, was sister of Johann's first wife who was earlier deceased. Cord is the 
brother of this transcriber's gggrandfather.

Eberhard

The EBERHARD was a bark--a 3-masted sailing vessel, square rigged on the fore and main masts and rigged fore-and-aft on the mizzen mast-- built by the shipwright Johann Lange, of Vegesack/Grohn, for the Bremen firm of Gebruder Focke, and launched on 20 November 1847. --- Masters of the EBERHARD were, in order, Chr. Treviranus, C. F. Wiegmeyer (1852), Christian Geerken (1856), and, again, C. F. Wiegmeyer (1858). --- Both a painting and a model of the EBERHARD survive in the collections of the Focke-Museum in Bremen. - [Posted to the Emigtation-Ships Mailing List by Michael Palmer - 1 November 1998
