• Notes

  _P_CCINFO 2-14330 GROTELUSCHEN-GROTELUESCHEN There are two variations in spelling. The information from a German source indicates that the spelling in Germany was and still is GROTELUSCHEN with the "u" having an umlaut (") over it. The umlaut is a diacritical mark that is added to a vowel that changes the sound of the German vowels a, i, o, and u. The variation in spelling came from the fact that there is no umlaut in the English language. For a phonetically correct English substitution, an "e" was added. The variations caused some problems. Other German names have the same characteristic. There is no definite answer as to which spelling is correct and neither is more correct than the other. _____________________________ Friedrich emigrated to the United States aboard the Vessel LIEPZIG, which traveled from Bremen, Germany and Southhampton, England and arrived at the port of Baltimore, MD. on May 24, 1872.
