 | Engraving of the S.S. Rhein
The steamship Rhein was builit in 1868 at Greenock, Scotland, by Caird & Co. The Rhein was operated by the Norddeutscher (North German) Lloyd steamship line, also known as the "Bremen Line." The Rhein was 332 ft long by 40 feet wide with 2,901 gross register tons (GRT). GRT is a measure of enclosed storage with 1 GRT being 100 cubic feet. Average speed was approximately 12 knots, and the transatlantic crossing took approximately 2 weeks. The captain was Captain Meyer. The steerage fare from Bremen to New York was $40. Assuming they traveled steerage, total fare for Michael Jr. and his 10 children would have been $440.

 | First Garbage Disposal, invented by John W. Hammes
In-Sink-Erator founder John W. Hammes, a Racine, Wisconsin architect, was first to solve one major inconvenience: disposing of food scraps. In 1927, he built the first waste disposer in his basement workshop. After eleven years of testing and development, InSinkErator Manufacturing Co. was established, making and selling 52 disposers in 1938. A slow start, to be sure -- but an auspicious one.
