She and her twin sister were born in Altehäusers Haus in Wunderthausen. Emma Wetter Hobbs describes both twins as having come to America, though has their spouses mixed up. Maria Catherine was definitely the wife of Martin Daniel Fischer in California. These women were Emma's great-aunts. While obviously not very close to her, I have no doubt both came to America, one settling in California and the other in or near Milwaukee.

When and how she got to America is uncertain. Her brother J. Georg's family came to Ohio in 1848. It would have made sense to travel together but that apparently did not happen.

Moved from St. Louis to California in 1853. Living in Calaveras County by 1860.

The American spelling of the last varied (Merchen, Merchan, Murchen) though he was more consistently known as John. Born in the house Am Gefälle in Wunderthausen. Came to America on the ship "Johann Schmidt" out of Bremen, landing in New Orleans on June 1, 1857. Information about his children is inconsistent. I have not seen any one definitive source. Before his death, he farmed 120 acres in Cedar County/Springfield Township/Section 13.

Born in Schmidts/Lieses Haus in Wunderthausen. Came to America on the ship Louise, docking in Baltimore on June 3, 1841. There are no other Wittgensteiners that I can recognize among the 300+ passengers. She was without question coming to join her brother who had arrived a few years before. For luggage she had "one little box."

Born in Schmidts/Lieses Haus in Wunderthausen. They arrived in the port of Baltimore on July 1, 1834 on the ship Palmer out of Bremen. There had been Wetter kin in Baltimore where they first lived, and there were to be later connections around Massilon, Ohio where they also lived. They settled for good in Milwaukee in 1844.

Born at Petersgrund near Wunderthausen and came to America with her husband and one child on the ship "Palmer" that arrived in Baltimore in July 1834. It is a good guess that the child was her son, Georg Gabriel, who was born out of wedlock. Whether Schmidt was the father is not recorded. They wound up in Milwaukee.
