Philipp Motz - Manhattan/France *

I'm searching for any information regarding the Motz family found in the 1860 Census in Manhattan. They are listed as:
Philipp age 42, Barbara age 35, Magdelena age 17, Philipp age 12, Margaretha age 9, and Peter age 5. Philipp and Barbara are listed as having been born in France (assumption is Alsace). They are my ggg grandparents through their daughter Magdelena. She married a German immigrant named Alexander Fellger in 1867 and they eventually settled in Jersey City, New Jersey. It appears as if sometime after 1860 and before 1870 Phillip died. The family may have gone to Queens, NY at that time. Any information would be greatly appreciated. TIA!
