Thank you, Susanne;
I have seen the passenger list for the Saale listing the family with both "Cath"s - according to family, this is the correct ship. I believe the 19 year old "Cath" may have the wrong age even on the passenger list.The elder Katherine would have been 39 not 19 at the time of the voyage. Also: On the passenger lists I've seen, the parents are usually listed first, then the children. She is listed first above all the others.
Census information for Alameda County, California lists the family.
Also: The 38 year old Wilhelm is actually a female Wilhelmine, according to the handwritten ship's passenger list (Wilhne, f). I'm still trying to figure out who this person is and her relationship to the rest of the family.
I'll take the info you gave me to my local LDS family search center and see what I can find. Thank you again!
