on the ship Ulysses and was the correct age to have been J B WOLTERS on the 1838-39
Father Helias Census. His place of origin was given as Schwartenpohl so Gross Hesepe
parish records were checked and a corresponding entry was found there for him. His
parents' names listed above were taken from that document. The child born ca 1836-37 is
known from censuses. Children born 1839-45 were taken from Father Helias' records.

| NOTES: |
Gerhard WOLTERS was godfather Nov 1839 in MO
for a child of Bernard WOLTERS (from Schwartenpohl) and Elisabeth AHRENS from Aschendorf |
| SOURCES: |
This ID is not 100% certain because this
emigrant has been found on record only once in the US and that was as a godfather. Because
his surname was the same as that of the father of the child he was presumed to have been
related to him. There was an entry in the emigration index for someone with his name who
had emigrated from the same place where the father of the child had been born. Gross
Hesepe parish records were checked and the birth/baptism entry verified that Johan Gerhard
Wolters on the emigration list was indeed a brother of Bernard Wolters the father of the
child baptized in November 1839. more about sources used |

Johan Herman's date of birth was on his
tombstone. His parents' names were on his marriage record in 1883 at St Peter's parish.
Siblings were known to have been born in Schwartenpohl so Gross Hesepe parish records were
checked and a corresponding birth/baptism entry was found there for Johan Herman 2 years
and one day later than the tombstone date. The probable surname of his first wife was
found on baptismal records at St Peter parish 1848-53 for children of Herman Wolters and

Johan's parents' names were on his marriage
record at St Vincent de Paul parish. His approximate year of birth was known from his age
at death. There were two persons by his name mentioned on the Holte parish emigration list
as emigrating from Laehden Holte in 1856 and 1857, neither with an age mentioned. Holte
parish records were checked and a corresponding birth/baptism entry found there for Johan
Herman. The children's information is from the 1880 census.
NOTE: John WORTMAN'S biographical sketch on parge 140 of the History of the
Archdiocese of Saint Louis, 1924, says he was born Oct 18, 1826 in "Leiden
Kirchpere Halle", Germany. This should have read Leahden, Kirchspiel Holte. The fact
that his parents' names were on his marriage records confirms Laehden, Holte as the
correct place of birth and the date of Nov 21, 1828 was the closest birth/baptism date
found in the records of that parish for a child of theirs named Johan Herman.more about sources used
