Hello! I¹m interested in tracing the family of my gg-grandfather Johann Josef Boeckmann who was born in Muhlen, Herzogthun, Oldenburg, the 16th of June, 1855, and came to America in 1881 where he married my gg-grandmother in 1882 and settled in Connecticut. All that I recall having been told by my grandmother is: that her parents had met aboard his father¹s ship where he was a crew member when she was emigrating from Halle/Leipzig; that Josef was the youngest of 11 children and had a brother, Clemence, a cigar manufacturer, another brother Werner and one sister, Rosa; and that Josef¹s father was captain of his own ship and sailed regularly to Cuba and America bringing many immigrants; as well as a vague recollection of a story that a brother of Josef¹s was murdered in Baltimore supposedly for a diamond he flaunted and the bag of gold that he carried! So far I have not been successful in finding either of my gg-grandparents on a passenger list nor a Boeckmann listed as the master. Thank you so much if anyone would have any information about this family .... Carola (in Spain) -- Carola Condé carola(a)miguelconde.info
