German Ancestors
I am looking for any information regarding my German ancestors. My grandfather, Heinrich Frederick Christopher Rogge was born August 8, 1847. He arrived in the United States (New Orleans, La.) October 14, 1872. He traveled on the ship S.S. Saxonia which had sailed out of Hamburg, Germany. According to his passport he was from Wennigsen, Hannover, Germany. Frederick listed his occupation as a barber. He came to America with his brother Wilhelm. His father’s name was Frederick Christoph Rogge or Christoph Frederick Rogge. My grandfather’s mother was Dorothea Hassenyager. She died February 4, 1877 in Hannover.
Any information will be greatly appreciated.
Roy Rogge
