Well I’m still looking at George Farber and close ancestors. The George born in 1817 married Catherine Diekamp, and there are now records online pertaining to the Diekamp family members. It appears that Catherine immigrated in 1833 with her parents Steffen Diekamp (born 1785) and Anna Wallenbrock, and two siblings. It looks like Steffen Diekamp’s parents are Herman Henrich Diekamp (born 1752) and Catherina Margaretha Stiegemeiers.

The records on familysearch are a bit confusing though, for every baptism record there are four entries, two that also show the birth date and two that do not. So four records for each person, times however many people, makes for a lot of records to wade through, carefully checking to make sure which person the record is really for. So it goes kind of slow trying to keep track of all the people, and I can look at these records only so long before I need a break, or it would get way too confusing 🙂
