Find Ancestors

Please can someone see if they can find the Rozenberg family on passenger lists for Uk to USA about 1901. They settled in Michigan.
Samson Rozenberg was one member of the family but do not know who he went with. The ship was probably the St Louis.

Thanks for your help

Jane

HI

Sorry we do not know his age. Did he sail with any other members of the family? Was that the St Louis?

Thanks very much for your help MarieCeleste.

Jane

This looks to be the voyage that the man did travel on, but it would help if Jane confirmed the details that she does have for her Rozenberg ....

UK, Outward Passenger Lists, 1890-1960

Name: Sampson Rosenberg
Gender: Male
Age: 35
Birth Date: abt 1869
Departure Date: 20 Jul 1904
Port of Departure: Liverpool, England
Destination Port: New York, USA
Ship Name: Westernland
Shipping line: American Line
Master: J B Hill

Travelling on the same ticket are: Rebecca Rosenberg (his wife, age 26); Simon Zimmerman; Shaie Soloway; Mendel Pompanski; Louis Ponter (all adults)

You must have some idea of when he was born, to know that he travelled

Jane, could you tell us the background you have to Samson and how you connected to him? That way we have an idea as to how to approach this to find the correct records, rather than hypothetical.

The names of the ships are shown on the records.

Only two people with the surname as you have it travelled at any time on the St Louis. neither was named Sam*

Jane mentioned Michigan being where he settled, so is this him? (We could be on for ever!)

1910 United States Federal Census

Age in 1910: 40
Birth Year: abt 1870
Birthplace: England
Home in 1910: Calumet, Houghton, Michigan
Race: White
Gender: Male

Note the immigration year.

Sampson arrived 1893 with Mary, Lottie & John arriving 1902. They state they've been married 12 years.

Hi

Thank you Ricochet, Gins and MarieCeleste. That information is looking good. We will make a note of that information .

The information on the 1901 census is our family.

The Sampson who sailed in 1904 was married to Rebecca. The one on the 1920 census was married to Mary. So did he remarry.

There can't be many people with a name like Sampson Rosenberg ?

Thanks again

Jane

Jane, there are actually quite a few men of that name - that's why it's important you give us as much info as possible.

Given that the Samson on the 1901 was a tin miner then the 1910 & 1920 do seem likely.

Rule out the passenger lists with a Rebecca - that must be a different man. Yours was married to Mary on the 1901 and the wife is Mary on the 1910 & 1920.

The 1910 shows he immigrated 1893 but maybe that was his first trip then he went back for the family?

The problem is until recently we thought this family in a photo in Michigan were the Richards family. But it turns out that they are The Rozenberg family. The photo is of three men. ? father and two sons.

Our direct line is the Richards. The Rozenberg family married into the Richards family. Sampsons father Aaron was born in Germany. Arron was my husbands Gt Gt Grandfather.

Sorry that is all we know about the family.

Thanks for helping me

Jane

Thanks for that MarieCeleste. I will copy that information down make sense of it and see where we can go from here.

Thanks everyone for all your help

Jane

Looks like your man
