I'm looking to connect with anyone researching the
Petersen Family that immigrated to
Wisconsin (Calumet/Sheboygan Counties) in the 1850's. My immigrant ancester was
Caspar Heinrich Marcus
Petersen. He had two daughters by his first wife, Doris. Three sons by his second wife,
Augusta Bodenstab. The daughters were Emily/Amalia, Marie/Mary. The sons were
Freidrich Julius, Edmund Louis, and
Hugo A.
Caspar's younger brother,
Friedrich W., also immigrated; and his sister, Magdelana Dorthea Lorentina. Other siblings may have also immigrated. My line is
Freidrich Julius Petersen.
