Looking for Scheppley, (aka Scheffley) My great grandmother Henriette Dorothy Scheppley was born on January 6, 1838 in Techentein, (Mecklenburg) Germany. Believe she was named after her mother. My Great grandmother was married in Hamburg Germany (probablly awaiting the Ship they left on to begin their journey to America) They left Hamburg on March 13, 1856 on the Falcon - they traveled to Grimsby England where they boarded a train to Liverpool - where they left on the Queens Harvest - arriving in New York City on April 27, 1865. They moved shortly thereafter to Detroit Michigan.
