Hi Lisa,
I came across the following immigration information that I believe applies to you.
The steamship New York arrived in New York February 1, 1866 from Bremen. There was aboard:
Adam EIERS age 29 from Hefson [born ca. 1837]
Johannes EIERS age 29 yrs from Hefson. [born ca. 1839]
Were these two brothers the sons of Josephei EIERS and Eva Bieker?
I look forward to hearing from you again. I have many questions.
Jean
