Searching for any info on the surname Breden later Americanized to Braden.
My Gr.Grandfather was Hans Breden. He Americanized his name to John Braden.
Born 1844
Immigrated probably 1860-1870
Married in St. Louis, Mo to Anna Charlotte Trampe in 1873
Probably left from Bremerhaven although Bremerhaven may have been his home city.
Would like information about the family in Germany.
