Wow! That was a quick reply!

I assume the person listed as Job. David Fuss is my Johann David Fees. It
says this name came from the original German signature - he must have had
bad handwriting! :-)

Does anyone know whether the actual manuscript is available, either online,
on microfilm, or elsewhere? I have a note that he came with a wife and
children, and I would like to see if there is any additional information.
Is there any possibility that a manifest would give the original port of
departure, or would it just say Rotterdam?

Thanks!

Sue
