My ancestors emigrated to Minnesota from Manderfeld, Aachen (see my cousin Peter Hanson's posts).

Similarly, are there museum type records of when the first Dutch from the Aachen region started hearing about life in the US, and how they might have picked Minnesota?

Where did they depart Europe from? A port in Belgium? How did they get to that Port?

THANKS
