I'm looking for my great grandmother. She was born Katherine Evelyn Storm in Berlin Germany in June 1886. She came over in 1892 with her father and brothers, her mother died at sea. She is listed in 1900 Illinois census with WT and Anna Miles who adopted her, her name was transcribed as Katie Dorm. I cannot locate any information on her before this census or after. She married Burnham Butler Drew in 1905 and this information I have. I'm looking for her birth records, parents information or immigration records. Really anything could help. Thank you!

The first entry Anna Storm has some of the info that matches your profile, Anna died at sea per the ships manifest see last column. Line -19 the name is blank but the age is listed as 7. On lines 20 Willi age: 3 Male and Line 21 Attilie age: 11 mos Female both also died. Line 22 Hermine
age: 1mo. Female did survive along with Katherine which I believe would be Line -19. Manifest is damaged. Her husband apparently did not accompany the family.
