what ship was used, or who the Captain was.
Susan Dietz found a Rev. Haack in Germany:
"Carl Friedrich Dietz, son of Andrew Dietz and his wife, Wilhelmine nee Schneider,
was born on the 16th day of March 1861 in the Province of Wuertenberg, Germany.
He was baptized by his Pastor, the Rev. Haack, and under his guidance received
an early and thorough Christian training. After the demise of the Rev. Haack,
Pastor Brunn instructed him in the chief doctrines of the Christian faith and
also confirmed him. He conducted his studies under Pastor Brunn at the Preparatory
School in Steeden. Here the now sainted Dr. E.A.W. Kraus became his Pastor and
at the parsonage he diligently applied himself to the study of Latin and Greek.
Induced by his former Pastors Brunn and Kraus, he embarked for this country at
the age of 16."
Family stories handed down were leading us to believe that my great grandfather
was baptized in Ellmendingen and went to school and church there. Now we're
not so sure. I have not been able to locate this baptism entry in church books
so far. I have the baptism record for his father, Andreas - that one is in the
church in Langenalb, a village just a few miles down the road from Ellmendingen.
Andreas and Wilhelmine were married in Ellmendingen (her home) and I have that record.
All of her family - going back many generations - are in the records of the church
in Ellmendingen. There is no record for the baptism or confirmation of Carl F. Dietz
in the church in Ellmendingen. I feel fairly confident of this since I was able to
search them myself with our guide and interpreter, Jim Derheim. Now, I am following
up on the chance that Carl F. was baptized and schooled in the church at Langenalb.
These records were microfilmed by the LDS, so it is a matter of ordering the tapes and
then finding the time to review them. It seems as though the source for more
information on Carl F. Dietz may also be a good source of information for you on
Rev. Haack. If I find out anything more, I will certainly share with you. I guess
you might conclude that he died between 1861 and 1877 (hypothesize the most likely
date of death between 1865-1875?).

According to the records of the Vereinte Evangelische Mission (United Evangelical Mission) Christian Gottlob Haack was born 18.6.1830 at Kettwig. By profession he was a locksmith. He was trained at the seminary of the Rhenish Mission from 1854-1856, and sent out 29.8.1856. His sending mission was the "Evangelische Gesellschaft für die protestantischen Deutschen in Amerika" (Evangelical Society for the Protestant Germans in America). Passenger: Christ. Gottlieb Haack Age 26 Male Occupation Missionary last residence: Prussia Date of Arrival Oct 16, 1856 Final Destination Missouri Purpose for Travel: Staying in USA Ship's Name: Caroline Captain's Name: L. Stricker Manifest # 8754 Port of Embarkation: Bremen Mode of Travel: Cabin The ship Caroline left Bremen on September 4, 1856 and was at sea 41 days. There were 7 ships from Bremen that arrived in October of that year carrying a total of 2344 Germans to America. The total passenger count for this voyage of Caroline was 179, one of the smaller passenger counts. The ship "Caroline" sailed earlier in 1856 (Feb 20 to April 16- 56 days) from Bremen to New York with only 30 passengers. There are other ships named Caroline: "Caroline Tucker", "Caroline Read" and the "Caroline Middleton" all from Liverpool, the "Caroline and Mary Clark" from LeHavre, France, the American ship "Caroline" of Boston and "Caroline" of Norwegian sailing (1868). Unfortunately there was no Statue of Liberty to view and greet passengers until 1886, thirty years later. There are records of the ship Caroline arriving from Bremen as early as 1845 and as late as 1869 (from Hamburg, Captain Bugge, carrying 504 tons). In 1845 there is a report of the Caroline leaving Bremen in April and having to sail around Scotland due to contrary winds. That trip took 51 days, and encountered storms, dodged icebergs, and even collided with another ship one night.
