I am searching for any information on my GG Grandparents...their names were Joachim (Jochancan) Webber and Dorothea Parbush...I believe that he was born in Saltzburg, Germany and she was born in Austria...they had two daughters Elizabeth (Lizzie) b. 1837 and Sophia Fredrika (Mary) b. 1841 in Kalamie, Germany...Joachim was a tailor and a farmer...they got on a ship and went to Galveston, TX in 1845..Joachim and Dorothea died of Yellow Fever in Harrison Co, TX in 1852...I am looking for any information on this family...Mary Webber was my G Grandmother.
I apologize for dropping off the face of the earth last summer, Susanna. I appreciated your help.
I've recently (finally!) found out where my Weber ancestors came from & when -- William (b.1845) and Elisabeth Weber arrived in New York harbor in April 1884 on the Red Star line ship Westernland. They were with the 7 children they had at the time: Nicholas (b.1866), Johanna (b.1868), Elisabeth (b.1870), Christopher (b.1872), Matthew (b.1874), Jacob (b.1876) and Anna (b.1880).
The family was from Binsfeld, Rheinland, Preußen, Germany. (I also found William's naturalization record from 1907 in Lackawanna County, Pennsylvania.)
Kathleen,
Hello. My name is Matthew Weber and I would be the great grandson of Jacob Weber. I am trying to find the family crest or coat of arms for the weber family from binsfield. I am not sure the one with the 3 stars is correct. Do you have any information?
