Notizen zu dieser Person
Hi John, I actually have a photo of his third wife but my mother only identified her as the third wife but there is something written in pencil on the back that could be a name. I have the photo scanned into my computer and I can scan the back also and send both images to you. I need your email address to do that. The peculiar thing is that while I have photos of my mother`s other grandparentsfrom her I don`t have photos of Hermann (either one) or Eleonora. Yes this isthe same family I`m sure. Also in the 1880 census I think the name is mis-interpreted and should really be Wuesthoff. And of course the other spelling is Wusthoff. I found a reference to a "Herm Wusthoff" in the passenger lists, arriving on the Saxonia on 4 Jun 1873. The info seems to right. In addition, the story my mother told of him about why he came here is that he was supposed to bean army officer and didn`t want to be. He wanted to be a musician so he left Germany.
