Description

I have determined that my 2nd great grandfather, Johann Benesch, immigrated in Sept. 1867 to eastern Wisconsin(Manitowoc). He listed Shas, Wisconsin on the ship manifest as a destination. Another family, John Urbanek, did the same. I am trying to find their town of origin in Bohemia and assume that they came from the same area because they are contiguous on the manifest and list the same destination. Does anyone have any clues or hints?
