There might be a link here. I'm working on my wife's family & was just given the following info (don't know the source yet of the Michael to Johann):
About 1765 Michael Erdmann had 1 son Andrus Erdmann, who had 4 sons of which one was Johann Michael Erdmann. Johann had a son August who was my wife's GGfather. In 1885 at age 39 they left Posen, Prussia for USA. They 1st settled in the Wasbasha Co, MN area (maybe WI 1st???) & the moved to the Bottineau and McHenry Co. around 1893. Most of his sons followed. some family stayed in MN, and some eventually migrated to WA.
Do you have any more details on Johann? The date is about right.
