Hi. I have found a ship manifest for my ancestors arriving in Baltimore from Bremen in 1853. The manifest indicates they are from a town in Bavaria and I would be most grateful if you can please help me undertand the name of the town. It appears to be Bihrstern. I have a jpg of the original manifest but cannot determine how to post it to this message. Any help to figure out how to post it would also be most greatfully appreciated. Thanks. Rick Forster

Can you post a link to the record you're talking about?

I have the document on my desktop. When I click the post media icon (shown below), it asks for the URL. I add what is shown here but the document does not load. I cannot determien what I am doing wrong. I guess what I am asking, can you please tell me how to post a document that I have on my desktop?

Thank you for posting the ship list. I would be most grateful if someone in the group could please help me understand the name of the city from which my relatives in the red box were from. Thanks very much. Rick
