The 69 from Scherzheim did not make this journey alone. They were accompanied by four families from the neighboring town of Lichtenau who were also sent to America. Jacob März with his wife and 11 children; Christian Fessler with his wife and 7 children; Jacob Mann with his wife and 7 children; and Jacob Eisenstein with his wife and 9 children.
On the voyage to America, they traveled with the nine deported families of Scherzheim on the ship the Francis B. Cutting from Antwerp to New York. They left port in Antwerp on January 10, 1855 and arrived in New York on March 1, 1855.
