John & Peter show up as living with the family, but do not show up on the manifest of the OHIO. They must have traveled to the US prior to the rest of the family.

I have been doing some research on my family ancestry using FamilySearch.Org and discovered the work you have done, which I want to thank you for doing. My father was William B. Lilla, youngest son of John Lilla (of Stirum ND). As you know John Lilla was the son of Barbara Wiesner (Lilla), my Great Grandmother. She then later married Franz Prokosch. Up until now I was never able to be able to find earlier ancestors on my Dad’s side other than his father (John Lilla) and his mother (Anna Bartl Lilla). I still am not able to find earlier ancestors of Anna. She married John Lilla in New Ulm, MN on 8/19/1895.

Was Barbara Prokosch your Great Grandmother also?
Again, thank you for the work you have done.
