[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Beginning in Volhynia - Coincidences

[Jerry Frank]

Coincidentally:

A few days ago, Wilma posted a message about her Stege family who I 
think also originally settled at Neche.  She then posted a copy of 
the passenger ship record at

If you go to that link, you will find that Gustav and Auguste Karasch 
and two daughters were travelling on the same ship with them!
