NEW ORLEANS, LA
Information on New Orleans
New Orleans was one of the destinations for immigrant ships leaving Bremerhaven. Eventually orginizations were set up in New Orleans to help the German arrivals. Some immigrants stayed in New Orleans or set up cities in Louisiana. Others traveled up the Mississippi River to destinations like St. Louis, Missouri. For our genealogy we note two ships which arrived at New Orleans from Bremen in Prussia and LeHavre in France: Peter Godeffrey in 1851 and Elizabeth in 1855 (see below).
