Ships Which Brought Our Ancestors to America is an ongoing project of Betty Miley Ashley. Information is from various sources including: ship passenger lists, family records, petitions for naturalization, and censuses. These are records for Lower Jeruslan people and their relatives. If you have information to add or corrections to make, please contact Betty.
Notes from Betty Ashley in
1998: I have gone through the records collected over the years since I first began corresponding with those of you who were born in the Wiesenmuller area and those of you who are descendants of the immigrants. The earliest record found in my files was from a descendant of Johannes BEHRIG who was 49 years old in December 1876 when he and his family traveled on the SS City of Richmond to New York City, NY. Just a few months before that the first large group of Volga Deutsch from Kratzke, Saratov, Russia, had journeyed to Russell, Kansas. Among that froup were many relatives of our Wiesenmuellern and their neighboring villages. The last family I have records of (who arrived in America before most migration closed down completely from Russia) was the family of Adam PINNECKER which arrived in 1926 aboard the SS Albert Ballin. If my notes are correct, Wiesenmuellerin were aboard the SS Haverford on three different voyages. The SS Arabic II brought at least 2 different groups of our people. The other ship named on our records in more or less chronological order were the STEAMSHIPS (Sses): Saale, Rugia, Elizabeth Rickmers, Southwark, Missler, Phoenicia, Letonia, Augusta Victoria, Celtic, Cretic, Noordam, Frankfurt, Sicily, Ivernia, Canada, Merion, Caronia, friesland, Lusitania, Franconia, California, Eisenack, Main, Montclair, Thuringia. Webmaster Note: Since 1998 Betty has added much more information, as seen below. |

More information from Merlyn Niedens: This Johan
Niediens (Niedens) is my grandfather, Henry Niedens' brother. John's obituary indicated
that he immigrated to America in 1887 and settled in Russell Co, KS. The 1900 federal
census found him farming in Wheatland township, Barton Co, KS. His brother, Fred,
was also living in this township at this time. Later, he moved to and farmed in
Rush Co, KS. About 1930, he retired and lived in Bazine, KS until the time of his
death 16 Apr 1940. My sister recalls that our grandfather who also lived in Bazine
would frequently visit John. Henry, Fred and John Niedens left Russia at about the
same time. Henry and Fred arrived a few days before Christmas, 1886, and settled
in Marion Co, KS. The oldest brother, George, the mother Marie Katherine Niedens,
nee Keil and sister Anna Niedens Schneider arrived lated in 1891 and settled in Marion
Co, KS. Henry, John and Fred Niedens were sons of John Adam and Marie Katherine
Neidens nee Keil. Merlyn knew very little about his grandmother's family, Marie
Nieden nee Pinnecker. She had at least one sister married a Philbert and lived in
Bazine, KS. John Adam Niedens , the father of Henry, apparently died and was buried
in Russia. His wife, Marie Katherine, came to America and lived in Marion Co KS.
It is thought that she died 1896. John never did live in Marion Co and was living
in Barton Co in 1900. Merlyn has found the gravesite of Maria Katherine Niedens
nee Kiel. This great grandmother had been listed as a witness to Merlyn's father's
baptism at the Zion Lutheran Church at Hillsboro, KS. She died on April 28, 1898
at age 68 yrs, 3 mos, 6 days. Probably born 22 Jan 1830. Merlyn's grandmothers
(Maria Niedens nee Pinnecker)Elizabeth Pinnecker Filbert was born Gnadenfeld, Russia
on 23 Feb 1868 and died Larned KS on 2 Mar 1944. In 1889 the family immigrated to
Mexico and after enduring extreme hardship for several months moved to a farm 4 miles
south of Russell KS. On 3 Oct 1891 she married August Filbert. In the obit the
following children were listed: Marie Clark of Denver CO, Anna Hartman of Kighton
KS, Martha Foos of Kighton, August Filbert of Bazine KS, Pauline Kleveno of Bazine
KS, Bertha Kuehn of Englewood CO, Jacob Filbert of BAziine KS, Dorothy Ely of Bazine
KS. The obit did not mention that her parents were Karl and Katherine Pinecker or
a sister who might have lived in OHurray.

More information from Glenn Sitzman: Catherine (Pfeiff) Siegfried
was my Grandmother Sitzman's older sister. One of their daughters told me in the
1970s that Jacob Siegfried was born in Germany but married Catherine Pfeiff at Frank,
Russia, where she was born 1864 (died 1931). Jacob was born 1856 and died 1907.
The son Jacob was born from a wife who died; whether the first wife was born in
Germany or Russia, I do not know. The family emigrated from Frank and settled at
Mountain Park, Oklahoma Territory during one of the "runs."
