Mary Schrader is the great niece of Mr. Orlopp passenger on this vessel.
Odo A.T. Orlopp (1834-1901) arrived in New York from Bremen on the
Barque Coriolan 20 Sept. 1859.  His destination was Columbus, Ohio.
The 1870 census lists his trade as a tobacco dealer in Columbus.  A few
years later he opened a candy and toy store on 141 N. High Street.  He
was the brother of Oscar Louis Orlopp who was a teacher and later a
bookstore owner in that city during the same period.  Odo is buried in the
Green Lawn Cemetry in Columbus. Mary Schrader

The Bremen bark (not ship) CORIOLAN was built at Kennebunk, Maine, in 1850. She must have been purchased by Bremen interests either on the stocks or shortly after launching, as she first arrived at New York from Bremen in late September 1850. The CORIOLAN was owned from at least 1865 by the Bremen firm of F Reck & Co. She was still in service in 1885, the oldest "Downeaster" in the Bremen merchant fleet. The CORIOLAN first appears in _Lloyd's Register_for 1876/77 (the first year that non-British ocean-going vessels not surveyed and classed by Lloyds Register of Shipping are included): 966 tons; 162 x 33 x 22 ft (length x beam x depth of hold); International Signal Code QCDG.
