Carolina's approximate year of birth and her
married surname were known from her death record at St Anthony of Padua parish. That
corresponded with an entry for her with her family on the passenger list of the ship Stella
and with that an entry was identified for her in Walter Tenfelde's book Auswanderungen
und Auswanderer aus dem ehemaligen Kreise Lingen nach Nordamerika. Tenfelde's
entry gave her year of birth, parents names (as stated above), marriage information and
year of emigration as 1868, destination as St Louis. Lengerich parish records were checked
and a corresponding birth/baptism entry was found there for her although the mother's
surname on that entry (difficult to read) looked more like Siepen. Information about the
chidlren was also taken from the Tenfelde book. more about sources used |
