Henry and Louisa PAHL Family of Immigrants from Hannover, Germany to New Orleans, Louisiana

Immigration Information for Henry and Louisa Pahl and their children, Henry, August, Wilhelm, Christian and and Dorothea of Hannover, Germany:





Henry and Louisa Pahl, immigrants from Hannover, Germany were recorded with their five children on the New Orleans Louisiana Passenger List (below) for the ship Auguste which departed the Port of Bremen in Germany and arrived at the Port of New Orleans on 2 May 1853.

The family is listed (exception: the Baby Dorothy) on the 1860 U.S. Federal Census for the City of St. Louis, Missouri where the family settled and raised their families. Therefore there still remains the question as to why their destination was listed as Wisconsin. Was there family living in Wisconsin that they were to join?
