Connie; After landing in New Orleans they took a steamship up the
Mississippi to St. Louis. This trip took as long as a week. I thought the
ship records were at the University in New Orleans. I know that some ship
records were lost but that was from about 1839-1850. I was told they burned
the records fearing the cholorea epidemic was spread this way. Pat Huck
