Ann,
I don't think this is the same Fritz. My Fritz died while on a hunting trip with his brother, Carl (Charles). They were pulling their rifles out of the wagon when the trigger of one of them caught on a nail and the gun discharged, killing Fritz. This must have happened in Germany because Fritz was not on the ship with the rest of his family when they came to America. Furthermore, when they arrived, they didn't stick around and settle in Louisiana; they continued on up the Mississippi to St. Louis (this destination was also listed on the ship's passenger list).
