The passage was paid and registered but Balthauser Hedrich died suddenly before the ship sailed on Jne 21 1834 in his village of Willofs, Vogelsbergkries, Hennen [sic], Germany. The new widow Maria Hedrich made the trip with her son, Jacob, age one and her parents Casper and Maria Neiboldt and her sister Margareth from Germany to Baltimore all listing their destination as going to Missouri.
