Transcriber's Notes:
The use of an * indicates an error on the part of the original recorder not the
transcriber or is used to call your attention to additional information in the
Transcriber's Notes below.
The use of a ? indicates a word or letters that could not be read, due to quality
of original document.
The use of a ^ indicates letters are omitted and the following letter is
superscripted.
Countries of origin for most passengers was Germany, unless otherwise noted.
Country of destination for all passengers was United States, this column was omitted.
These passengers were numbered on the original film, not by the transcriber.
Since too many of these German names have "umlauts" (two dots over a vowel), I am not
listing each one individually but just giving a list of which names this applies to:
*369, 452, 472, 605, 647-648, 670, 692-696, 708-709, 712-716 the "o" in these
last names has an umlaut, could also be spelled as "oe".
*389, 409, 508, 603, 644-657 the "u" in in these last names has an umlaut, could
also be spelled as "ue".
*423, 458, 506, 701 the "a" in in these last names has an umlaut, could also be
spelled as "ae".
426 & 427 the same name is written for both in the original manifest
464 possible mistake in the original manifest, the first name is clearly "Anna" but
the sex is given as "male"
474 missing, numbering jumps from 473 to 475
501 used twice
578 possible mistake in the "occupation" column, written as "workman", even though
this is a female.
654 no age noted
Correspondence 10/6/2003 passengers #491-496 Neuhaus
After many months of checking all the passenger lists, I was excited to
find one of my husband's ancestors!
Steamer Borussia, from Hamberg, Germany to New York, 5 June 1867 on
page two, passengers 491-496.
Christ Neuhaus age 34 and Marie Neuhaus age 32 with four sons. Christian
age 7 is shown as female but was male.
Johann age 6, William age 5, and Claus age 10 months.
The family settled in Chicago. On the passenger list, father Christ is
shown as a farmer but he became a billiard carpenter. He died in 1886
and wife, Maria (nee Ohland and born in Stelle, Germany) married again
in 1891, died 1897.
Christian married and had seven children. He died 1906.
Johann died in 1873.
William (Frederick Wilhelm) married, had three children, died 1911.
Claus (John Hildebert) married, had two children, died 1946.
After arriving in Chicago, Christ and Maria had three more children.
Daughter Anine born 1870, alive in 1880, but then no more information.
*Son Carl (Karl/Charles) born 1872 in Chicago, married, had five
children. Della born 1895, George born 1897 and died 1899, Alvin born
1900, Helen born 1903, and Charles born 1909.
Son Theodore born 1873, married, had several children but only three
survived, he died 1907.
*Son of Carl, Alvin Neuhaus, married Married Fick and they had two
children, Barbara born 1932 and Carl born 1935.
