The following have been documented in Frankenmuth, Michigan (St. Lorenz Church): Magdalene Meier (Mrs. Kaiser), Johann Matthias Leidel & wife Margaretha Barbara nee Schiffermueller, Johann Jakob Bickel family including Eva Maria Bickel (Mrs. Trinklein) and Georg Michael Rupp, Johann Peter Trinklein, Georg Michael Ortner, Kunigunde Sippel and Andreas Hammerbacher, Johann Jakob Nusselt (St. Lorenz Book I Nr. 124), and Maria Margaretha Stroehlein (also spelled Straehlein). Additional correspondence 05/20/2004 Stefan Engerer came to Frankenmuth. Johann Markus Steinbauer, wife Anna Barbara, & 6 underage children, from Ratzenwinden by Ansbach(in the Central Franconian region of Bavaria). He was a (farm) steward at a place called "Steinhof". This information is from the Nuremberg State Archives (Intelligenz Blatt fuer Mittelfranken 1851 B. Nr.38 Sp.841-2/8.MAY.1851 + 1852 B. Nr.101 Sp.2011-2/11.DEC.1852 + BA Ansbach, Abgabe1930, Nr.427/780: 1853) Some others settled in Saginaw, Michigan.
Correspondence 11/3/2004 passengers 106 & 130 Zellhofer "106* John Zellhofer was born in Brachbach bei Obernzenn, Bavaria and christened 4 Aug 1825 in the ev. church in Obernzenn. He as christened Johann Konrad but ever-after was known as Johann Michael and called Mike. After landing in New York, he went on to join several siblings in Rome, Sullivan Township, Jefferson Co, Wisconsin. Within a year he is known to have been married to "Anna of Urphertshofen" bei Obernzenn & their first child was born. "Anna" died on 9 Sep 1858 in childbirth, leaving Mike and 4 children. Mike remarried on 12 Mar 1859 to the widow Elnora Laura Miller/Mueller nee: Haverland, who had one daughter, and the new marriage soon produced 3 more daughters. Mike then enlisted to the Civil War, died 5 Jan 1865 & was buried at Cave Hill Cemetery in Louisville, Kentucky. Twins of Mike/Anna were adopted by Klotz of Sauk County, Wisconsin, and the other 2 children of this marriage were also adopted to unknown parents. We still seek "Anna", and believe she have been another passenger on the same ship Celle: 130* Anna Breiter, having found a very loose assocation of the Breiter surname with Urphertshofen. We are continuing to research this and would greatly appreciate input! A full chronology may be found on my website at http://zelltree.com/MikeAnnaElnora.htm On a side note, there is also a Winkler family on the ship's list. They are not presently known to me, but Mike's grandmother was Dorothea Winkler, raising some possibility. Ron Klotz-Zellhoefer PO Box 2463 Overgaard AZ 85933 928/535-9468
