Hallo Nickolaus,
the brother of my great-great-great-grandfather left his homeland (Northgermany; Place SPADEN , LEHE thats near Bremerhaven)in 1881. His name was Nicolaus Luehrs and his brothers name was Berend. Nicolaus was 17 jears old when he left and arrived in 29th September 1881 in America. I have got some letters from 1892 - 1899, the sender is Nicolaus Luehrs and in the letters he notice his adrese:
3 Mission St. / San Francisco
Union Hotel / Oroville, Cal.
As you have have the same name and the letters are mailed from California so maybe theres a possibility that he is one of your ancestor.
Hope to hear from you soon.
Greetings from Bremen
Michael Lührs
