On Jan 21, 1839 a group of Saxon emigrants (700) ARRIVED from Bremen on the ship ''Olbers'' going to New Orleans [http://www.nausa.uni-oldenburg.de/olbersklein.jpg http://www.nausa.uni-oldenburg.de/olbersklein.jpg] This group belonged to the religion of ''Altlutheraner''. The Olbers was only one of 4 ships. They settled [temporarily] in St. Louis, Missouri before moving to East Perry County, Missouri - around the town of Altenburg, MO. This emigration is documented in "Zion on the Mississippi" by Walter O. Forster, 1953. The Lutheran Heritage Center & Museum in Altenburg [http://www.altenburgmuseum.org/ http://www.altenburgmuseum.org/] has a wonderful research center called "Zion Roots" - to help you extend your research back to Germany. The "Zion Roots" icon on the website explains the research center and it's resources. | On Jan 21, 1839 a group of Saxon emigrants (700) ARRIVED from Bremen on the ship ''Olbers'' going to New Orleans [http://www.nausa.uni-oldenburg.de/olbersklein.jpg http://www.nausa.uni-oldenburg.de/olbersklein.jpg] This group belonged to the religion of ''Altlutheraner''.
