Joseph Brungard, his wife and his four Kinder left for New York in 1854 (DREYER). 51 years old, Joseph had been born in Balschwiller. Two possibilities are offered to the researcher. Indeed, at this period were born two Joseph. The first was wire of Barthelemy Brungart and Marie Anne Muller, the second the child of Joseph and Anne Marie Scherrer. At the time concerned, two couples whose husband was a Joseph had Kinder with Balschwiller. The first was that of Joseph and Anne Catherine Graff but this Joseph had been born in 1794 and thus too old although it has four alive Kinder in 1854. The second was that of Joseph Brungard and Suzanne Himmelberger. Five Kinder were born in Balschwiller but two died in low-age. However, the request for 1854 specifies that there are four Kinder in departure. Thanks to the Himmelberger genealogy realized by Gerard Himmelberger, we know that the first child of the couple had been born not in Balschwiller but in Buethwiller, place of origin of the mother. With the two children deceased young, there remained about it well four as mentions it the stock of the passport. The investigation thus looped, it now remains to know if Joseph made stock in addition to the Atlantic.
