I want to describe how my Bohemian emigrant family may
have traveled from southern Bohemia near Milevsko
to their embarkation port of Bremen Germany in the Fall of 1853.

To travel to Prague along or /on the Vlatva is a realistic assumption.
then what options where available to them to travel to Bremen?

When did railways FIRST link Prague or any other part of the Bohemian
region
with the port of

Bremen /Bremerhaven?

Hamburg?

Were there any steamboats on the waterways at this time?

Facts solicited.
Opinions entertained.
