I have done an exhaustive search for my great great grandmother. I believe her name was Maria Steding Brandenburg married to Carl Johan or Johan Carl Brandenburg. They migrated with their family to the US in about 1864 ( found one such family that came in Oct 1864 on the ship the Teutonia). There was also a Whilhelmina Steding that was also married to a Johan Brandenburg. They all settled in Clinton County Iowa, but it looks as though they moved to Crawford County. My Gr Grandmother was Johanna Maria Brandenburg, sometimes going by Maria Fredricka Brandenburg. She married Anton Kreucher and lived in Lyons Clinton Iowa. The Teutonia has the following individuals listed on the manifest: Christian born in about 1855, Maria born in 1857. Johana born in 1858, Johan born in 1860, Dorothea born in 1864. I found a Maria around the same age that was married to August Thiede and lived in Crawford County. Her first husband died young and was named Heinrich Johan Stehr - they lived in Clinton. A Christian Brandenburg that moved from Clinton to Crawford Co and was married to: Emiliegeborne Rettmann, Johan married to Christina Theide and living in Dewitt Iowa. After they were in the US they had another daughter: Louisa Johanna Brandenburg who also lived in Crawford and was married to: August C Henkel. If anyone can assist me in finding more about this family I would appreciate it. I have a picture of Maria Steding Brandenburg and her husband as well as my great Grandmother Johana Maria Fredricka Augusta Brandenburg.
