Hey Brenda, I am researching the Christian Friedrich Wilhelm Rittmann, born 6 May 1836 in
Venne. He immigrated in 1854 to Baltimore and later moved to Pittsburgh. He then went to
Wood Co., Ohio then to Stuttgart, Ark where he died in 1884. He was run over by a train.
I have some info on his family.
I have the Venne to America book and have sent an email to Doris and she went me a little
more information on this family.
I don't know who the parents are. I think CFW was from Niewedde 3b.
Will share info.
