I am researching for the, Wiegand, Wilgus, O'Brien, Babione, and Fountain or Fountaine family. Johanna Wiegand came to Ellis Island, in New York, around 1893 from the area of Rheinland, Germany. Her son, Charles Conrad Wiegand accompanied her. He answered to the name, Carl. My grandfather Charles Piere Wiegand, proceeded her. He was born in New Amsterdam, Holland. With him, he was accompanied by his sister Christine Wiegand, and their parents Martin and Christine Wiegand. After the family settled in Toledo, Ohio, Christine Wiegand married Urban Babione. There was rumor that Charles Piere Wiegand was adopted, it is hoped to find out for sure.
I would like to know what ship and the date of naturalization of my grandparents. There is hope to find living family in the "old" country.

In addition, I am also looking for information on my brother's and my father. My dad is George O'Brien, I believe he was adopted. My brother's father's name is Edwin W. Wilgus. We cannot ask about them, as all that may have known are now deaceased. We would like any information on our dad's as they are complete mysteries to my brother and I. Again, we hope to find living family, on our dad's side.

I am willing to share any information I have and would greatly appreciate any help that is given to me.
