I looking for my ancestor's birthplace. He came from Le Havre, France aboard the ship Birmingham, and arrived in the port of New York in July 11, 1846. I would like to know who he was traveling with and the names of his parents. I would like to know the name of his spouse first name and her surname. Was he widowed when he came to the United States. I am a descendant of him. My maiden name is Schneider and Sophie Wittenkeller is my great grandmother. Sophie Wittenkeller's parents (my great-great grandparents) were Joseph Wittenkeller and Theresa Eck. My email address is Janesantiago53@gmail.com and my phone number is 630-247-3270. I live in Frankfort Illinois, United States. Thanks for any help!

I have located Joseph's Birth Record in Rossfeld, Alsace, France. I have attached it. Mother's name looks like Marie Anne Weuk or Weuik.
