Matches and possible matches made by Chris Bowman:
- NICHOLAS BALL was born February 14, 1806 in Oberroedern, Bas Rhin, France, and died Bef. 1901. He married ELIZABETH STEFFLER November 21, 1835 in Oberroedern, Bas Rhin, daughter of LUC STEFFLER and CATHARINE PHILLIPS. She was born October 19, 1816 in Oberroedern, Bas Rhin, France. The 1901 census for Wellesley Township (Ontario) has Elizabeth Ball living with Peter Dentinger {June 29, 1845-?} and family. Peter's daughter Carrie Dentinger is also living with her husband George Dorscht. The census states that Elizabeth Ball was born July 05, 1813 and immigrated to Canada in 1838. The first child of Nicholas and Elizabeth Ball was Elizabeth Ball, born about 1836 in "Germany."
- Chris has in his records a MARGARET BALL who married Balthasar Mayer on 09-Oct-1838 in Waterloo County, Ontario. He does not have a record of her age or whether she is related to Nicholas Ball.
- ANTHONY DETTINGER married CATHARINE MAZON? (or MARZOLF?). They settled in Wilmot, Ontario, Canada. Anthony died 10-Feb-1901 in Wilmot, Ontario, Canada.
- GEORGE STRAUSSER married CATHARINE SCHUTT/BIETH. They settled in Wilmot, Waterloo County, Ontario.
Matches and possible matches made by Nancy Archdekin:
- Nicholas Ball & Elizabeth Stoeffler married in Oberroedern in 1835 and their daughter Elisabeth was born there in 1836. This Ball family is referenced in L’Emigration des Alsaciens et des Lorrains (FHC #6001613 & 6001614). Page 303 discusses immigration of Nicolas Ball (weaver and farmer, born 15 Jan 1803 in Oberroedern) who arrived in Waterloo (Ontario) with his wife, nee Steffler and their daughter and settled in the village of Hawsville (Hawksville in the district of Wellesley, Ontario, Canada).Nicholas and Elisabeth were listed in the 1881 Canadian Census extracts (LDS CD publ 2002) living in Wellesley, Waterloo North, Ontario.
- Adam & Marie Kraemer married in Oberroedern in 1836. Marie is the sister of Elisabeth Ball (nee Stoeffler), who is also a passenger on this ship. There’s an entry in the Oberroedern birth index for a Marie Eve Kraemer born 22 May 1837 who I suspect is their daughter and is the child listed with them on this passenger list, but I still need to check the actual Oberroedern birth records.
- Bernhard Clauss & Anne Marie Zimmermann married in Stundweiller and their children were all born there.
- George Clauss may be the brother of passenger Bernhard Clauss. Georg Clauss married Catharina Suttel in Stundwiller. However, the names of the children on the passenger list don’t all match the records in Stundweiller:
- Could be Anton Dentinger born 1810 Stundweiller and his wife Catharina Marzolf born 1806 Aschbach. They married 6 Nov 1837 in Stundweiller. This family ended up in St. Agatha, Ontario, Canada. Descendants of this family have been recorded in the Dentinger Family Chronicles, published in 2001 by Jerry Dentinger.

Matches and possible matches made by Robert Behra:
- On your list of passengers on the ship "St Nicolas", which arrived in New York from Le Havre 20 Apr 1843 (original to be found on FHL microfilm no. 0002297) you list
30109797 Kieffer, Michel 37 France
30109798 Denninger, Magd. 33 France
When I looked at that list several years ago I read their ages as 27 and 23. I can identify the first one:
Jean Michel Kieffer
b. 23 Dec 1815, Wolschheim, Bas-Rhin
d. 18 Apr 1904
bur. St. Isadore's Cemetery, near Clyman, Dodge Co., WI
son of Johannes Kieffer (1780-1837) and Maria Kiene (1778-1840)
He was travelling with his sister Maria Kieffer, her husband Sebastian Wenker, and their six children, who are listed immediately before Michel on the passenger list. Michel declared his intention to become a US citizen 20 Nov 1844 in Northampton, Hampshire Co., MA, and was admitted as a citizen 12 May 1848 in Dodge Co., WI. His son Philip married a distant cousin of mine, Albertine Ringenbach, an Alsatian immigrant whose parents came to the US in 1854.
[Note from Brian Smith: After receiving this information from Robert, I added listings to this page for Sebastian and Maria Wenker, whose name is spelled Wencher on the CD. As for the differences in ages that Robert reports, I presume Robert was looking at the original passenger list on microfilm, and an error was made by the people who transcribed it to the CD database.]
