Correspondence August 8, 2007 passengers 16-21 Weinthal, passenger 22 Salomon
The family name on the manifest is WEINTHAL, not Wamthal or Wambhal.
I have seen microfilms of the manifest - it is WEINTHAL; it is also indexed
as Weinthal in the Germans to America volume which is where I first found it.
This party are members of my family. Friedericke is my direct ancestor. It would
be appreciated if the correction could be made as there are other descendants now
researching the family history as well. Even with the mistake, it is cool to have
this online. Nice to be able to contrast interpretations. I had forgotten about
Rike Salomon on line 22, she may be a relation, too.
with much appreciation for your contribution to genealogy,
