Ship manifest for Bittaker (variants) arriving from Antwerp, Belgium in New York, New York, on 25 April 1855 also included the following. It is thought that these families are related but research thus far has failed to provide documentation as such.
Family 1: Johann Büttiker (49), Anna Maria (wife, 26), Robert (son, 5), and Phillipe (son, 3). Further research shows that this family settled in Ohio before the 1860 census.
Families 2 and 3: Bertha Boetticker, female, est birth 1854, Johann Boetticker, male, est birth 1819, Judith Boetticker, female, est birth 1843, Leo Boetticker, male, est birth 1845, Maria Boetticker, female, est birth 1809, Veronicka Boetticker, female, est birth 1839, Victor Boetticker, male, est birth 1813.
Research thus far reflects that Victor and his family settle in Kirkland, Oneida, New York by 1860 with a subsequent move to Jefferson, Linn, Missouri before the 1870 census year. |
