This story is from the diary of Father Anton Kopp regarding his journey to America in 1836. :
"Year 1836--On August 26th, I journeyed with a large number of my countrymen from Bremen to America. We disembarked in New York on October 3rd." From the diary of Fr. Anton Kopp After a few days stay there, part of our group continued on to Detroit, where we arrived on October 25th. On October 28th, Eberhard Platte and I, even though we were unable to speak the English language, set out for the Land Office in Ionia and arrived there on November 4th. Because of the great number of people we had to wait six days before we were able to buy our land. This we did on the 10th day of November. On that same day, I started the difficult return trip to Detroit by myself, arriving there on the 18th of November. The following day, I visited Bishop Friedrich Rese, who welcomed me kindly and assigned me to the German Parish. ... In the meantime several other families journeyed from Detroit to Lyons, where wages were high and where they would be close to their purchased land, which they hoped to settle shortly."
