Courtney- Sorry, cannot relate to your family. The Ellis Island database does. Johann (age 43), Franciska (age 38), Karl (age 9) and Wilhelm(age 8) arrived in NYC aboard the FRIEDRICH de GROSSE on 16 June 1903 from Bremen Germany. They are listed as coming from Tischan Austria.
I too thought my Katzenberger ancestors would be easy to research. WRONG. Excluding known ancestors, the data base is now 40 NYC families
