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.

		Passenger Manifest from the S/S Hammonia - 27 Feb 1869 Passenger #186 is Nicolaus Hammes, a 19-year-old farmer from Germany. There is no other Hammes on this passenger manifest. This was probably a first or exploratory trip to America by Nicolaus with him subsequently returning to Germany and then bringing the rest of the family to America in November of 1872. Also on this ship were Jacob Sondag and sister Marie, along with their mother, Anna Maria Theobald, step-father Mathias Wehr, and half-siblings, Margaretha, Johann, & Magdalene Wehr. (191-197)

Albums		The Great Tornado of 1873 (4) Have you heard of the Great Tornado of 1873? It was so powerful that the U.S. Congress sent an investigator. One account states that two sons of "Mr. Hamis" were injured. Could these have been sons of Michael Hammes, Jr.? The information with the photo of the Hammes house in 1873 says that the Hammes house was destroyed, though I find no mention of this in the news accounts. Interesting reading.
