I noticed that this is not a very active List, but I’ll try anything once. Looking for my
paternal Great-Great-Grandfather Peter Zeiser/Zaiser. He emigrated from the Grand duchy
of Baden in 1847 with his wife Theresa (nee Wagner) and two sons, Charles and Francis
(Karl and Franz) who were approximately 3 and 2 years old when they sailed, probably in
Springtime, from le Havre, France after traveling overland from ??? which is what I don’t
know. I believe them to be Evangelical Lutherans and would have been married around 1840
– 1843 or so. Theresa’s father’s given name was Leopold or Leonard Wagner. I have these
folks from the time they arrived in USA but have not been able to discover their home
town. My bones tell me it should be somewhere between Baden-Baden area and Freiburg area.
Any clues or wild shots are welcome even if the names are not exact. Peter born about
1812, Teresa about 1820. Many thanks!
