I am looking for the parents and siblings of Louise Weir (born ca 1829 probably in Mecklenburg, Germany, d 1859, Guttenberg, Iowa) who married Fredrick Schroeder (born 10 March 1829 Marnitz, Mecklenburg, Germany). I am also looking for the marriage record of Louise and Frederick.

Louise and Frederick left Hamburg, Germany, Oct 1854 on the ship Howard and arrived in New York Dec 1854. On the New York ship record Louise is identified as “Anne. Mar. Soph. Louis., age 24 years 4 months” and Frederick is identified as “Jochim Schroeder, age 25 years 9 months.” (Jochim is part of his baptismal name.)

Louise and Fredrick had three children: Fredrick Wilhelm, Jr.(born Buffalo, NY) who married Effie Butcher, Rudolph Henry who married Ellen Frederick, and Louisa Dorothea who married Ludwig Dietrich Gatz.

Thank you!
