    •      Catherine was between 7 and 14 months old when she left Germany with her father, Hermann Hünefeld (at age 27) and her mother, Christina (at age 21).
           Her family traveled with at least one other family that they knew: Herman Wiethoff (at age 47); his wife, Anna (born Fiegenbaum; at age 40); and their three sons, Hermann (at age 19); Heinrich Wilhelm (at age 12); and Heinrich Wilhelm (not more than 7 months of age).
           The trip could not have begun before May 1845, because Heinrich Wilhelm Wiethoff was born in Ladbergen, Prussia towards the end of that month. The two families were related through the adult women, who were 4th cousins once removed.
