This transcriber's great grandfather, Johann Ruch, and his first 
wife, Marie Meier, were passengers on the Zurich and may be found 
near the end of this Passenger List.  They were not from Switzerland 
as shown on this list; they were both from the Vorarlberg region of 
Austria.  John Baptiste Ruch was born in Latz, a hamlet near Nenzing, 
in 1823 and Anna Maria Mayer was born in Beschling, a hamlet also 
near Nenzing, in 1825.  When they emigrated, they traveled through 
Switzerland, into France, to Le Havre, where they booked passage on 
the Zurich.  John Rauch was a school teacher and church organist and 
taught in various German-speaking Catholic parochial schools in the 
Midwestern United States from 1852 to 1884.  His first wife, 
Anna Mayer, died in Iowa in 1858; they had three children, only one 
of whom survived childhood.  He married his second wife, my great 
grandmother, Sybilla Schmidt, an immigrant from Hofen, NW, Germany, 
in 1860 in New Vienna, Iowa; they had at least 8 children, of whom 7 
lived to maturity.  John and Sybilla Rauch lived out their last years 
on a farm in western Iowa, near Breda, Iowa; she died in 1912 and he 
died a year and a half later.
