Correspondence 08/22/01 passenger #31 KUSTERMANN

Rob KUSTERMANN is listed on the SS KOLN ship that came to NY from Bremen.  
He is actually Robert Wilhem KUSTERMANN, the brother of my great-grandfather 
Gustav KUSTERMANN who served in congress in the early 1900's.  He married 
Emma KALB and they had one son named Walter KUSTERMANN.  Most of the 
KUSTERMANN's settled in Green Bay, WI but I believe that Robert settled 
in California.  He was born in (or near) Detmold, Germany about 1855.  
I am interested in contacting anyone who is a relation of Robert.  Other 
siblings of Robert include:  Carl b 1847 and Otto b?.  Joe Ferris
