occupation:
immigration: Left Hamburg with husband and first two children on 15 May 1851, on board the Aurora. Arrived at New York City on 5 August 1851.
records and documents:
Hand-written, wax-sealed birth/baptism certificates from home towns for self, wife, and first two children, who were
born in Schwirsen, Pomerania.
additional information:
Meyer's Gazeteer [3] does not list a "Cölpin" or
"Coelpin" in
Pomerania. However, according to information from Dieter Wallschläger
of Berlin, she was born in Pinnow, Kreis Regenwalde, and baptized
in Cölpin, Kreis Kölberg, Pomerania.
[However, the baptism certificate I have says she
was born in "Coelpin".] These locations are quite near the kreis
(county) of Cammin, where her husband and first two children were
born, so this seem logical.
My map of Pomerania (c. 1928), shows a village
of "Kölpin" in Kölberg, so apparently the spelling changed.
Trinity (Milwaukee) church records list her birthplace in one place
as "Pinnow", but as "Kölpin" or "Cölpin" in other places.
Her maiden is spelled "Barthelt" in some entries, though in at least
one case, that is crossed out and "Bartel" is written in.
There was a family of Barthelts in Trinity at the time.
The information from Dieter also says that their marriage banns were
posted in Rottnow, but they were married in Pinnow. The Trinity
records say they were married in Rottnow in 1848.
Her second child, Wilhelmine, was less than 16 weeks old when
she departed Hamburg and spent more than 11 weeks on board the
Aurora.
