| William Louis Wiedhofft was born about 1829, although the only mention of him in England (so far) is the 1851 census that shows him as a 22 year old brazier. .We now know that he sailed to the USA with brother Alfred in 1852 on the Ship Hibernia. Although there are possibly descendants in New York no further information has yet come to light. Baptism at the church of St George the Martyr, Holborn on 15th February 1829 Wm Louis (son of) Jas & Sarah (obviously an error but WIEDHOFFT spelt correctly) Chaser | |
