(sigh) Unfortunately, my Carsten's aren't related to yours, BUT there are
some folks in town who are descended of the Carsten's in Iowa, and I know
they mentioned Anna Carsten. Would you like more info?

My g-g-g-grandparents were Fredrich & Anna Carsten of Holstein-Germany. They
arrived in New York City on the Ship Oder in June 1852 with my
g-g-grandfather, Frederich Wilhelm Carsten - who later changed the spelling
to Frederick William Carsten. Fred married Neoma Manus, a young Cherokee
woman in Springfield, Greene Co., MO in 1864. According to the passenger
records, Fredrich would have been born ca. 1817, and Anna ca. 1819. We have
nothing further on our Carsten family beyond the passenger records.
