Jean Jacob Fink and Ester Campeau



Hi      
I just found your site on immigrants from Germany to Canada  listed in 1881 census.
One of the persons, Jacob Fink, is my great-grandfather, born 1820 not in Germany but rather Lingenau, Austria.  
I realize both countries were one at a time which is probably why Jacob Fink is either down as German or Austrian.  
I have a copy of the chuch register from Lingenau. I am indeed fortunate to have this document.....it's thanks to
a great librarian in Bregenz, Austria who looked up the info for me.  Unfortunately, I don't have all that much.  
I will dig out a picture of him and his wife and also a copy of the ticket for the trip aboard the Oneida from
Le Havre, France.    You can use them on your site........ 

Just a note, if someone else should be researching him.

The person who submitted the above text and the following images has asked that her e-mail address
be deleted from this web page. Done.

If any descendants of Jacob Fink wish to share research with her, e-mail me, and I'll pass your
e-mail on to her.
