From: David Harfst <Genealogy(a)HarfstFamily.org>

I found the following on ancestry.com. This is the closest match found. But that is a very common name.

Name: Johann Meyer
Arrival Date: 14 Jun 1867
Age: 22
Gender: Male
Port of Departure: Bremen
Occupation: Farmer
Ship: Germania
Ship Type: Ship
Port of Arrival: Baltimore
Place of Origin: Beyern
National Archives' Series Number: M255
Microfilm Roll Number: 15
List Number: 51
Destination: Chicago

To verify, I attempted to look for a Meyer female of approximately the same age that may be his sister. Two other Meyer's are listed on the same ship with the same place of origin and destination:

Name: Wallburga Meyer
Age: 24
Gender: Female

Name: Crecencia Meyer
Age: 1
Gender: Female

This would make be believe they were this Johann Meyer's wife and daughter, which doesn't seem to fit.

Hello All,
I am searching for information on my ancestors. I would appreciate any help or information you might be able to supply.
Below is what I have so far:
Church book of parish Lutten (Vechta county):

Children: 21 May, 1838 Lutten, Johann Heribert
20 May, 1840 Lutten, Catharina Maria

03 Dec, 1844 Lutten, Johann Henrich (I am direct descendant – he was my Great-Great Grandfather) – emigrated to United States via Baltimore, Maryland with one of his sisters around the age of 23. (Godparents: Johann Henrich Themann, Maria Catharina Kohl, Priest: Krumpelbeck)
I would greatly appreciate any additional information or direction for further research that you might have. For example, where would be a good place to look for information on date/ship taken. Thank you very much,
