I sent this message a short time ago and decided to go back in and check the
ship list again and I am sorry to say when I printed it, it showed that he
was

from Damerhorst and instead he was from Freyenstein.  For some reason the

way the markings were on the page it showed the wrong village.

But now I have another question?  When Heinrich came over he was accompanied
with his wife and four small children.  However he is listed in one part of
the list and she and the children are listed on another page?  Is that not a
strange way to list a family?  She was listed from a different village than
her

husband.  Just seems strange.  By the way the same thing happened with
Auguste and the name of her village.  When it printed it listed the village
for

the previous passenger instead of hers.

I wonder if someone could help me with the village listed above.  It is
listed on 

the Hamburger Passenger List for Heinr Lohroff as place of residence,
Damerhorst, Pommern.  He departed 1882 on ship Bohemia.  I have tried to 

find it but no luck.  Could it perhaps be a Kreis instead of a village?  

In ShtetlSeeker I found a Starchenkove now in Ukraine, says it is 366 miles

SE of Kyyiv which I assume must be Kiev?

Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Thank you.

Freyenstein  is in Austria.  Check with ShtetlSeeker at
http://www.jewishgen.org/Communities/LocTown.asp

 

 

 

Austria phone directory does not show any Lohroff listings.  There are only
3 Lohroff listings in Germany, all in Berlin.

 

And the other town, which appears to be wrong is not Damerhorst, but appears
to be  Damerkow.  See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Czarna_D%C4%85br%C3%B3wka
The town is Czarna Dabrowka in Northern Poland.
