Trading with seeds was also a long tradition in Kemmler families. They travelled whole Europe to sell their seeds. Some of the death recordings give a good overview about the spread. The travel activities must have started already before 1800. It looks like that also women did travelling as well. Depending to the final target and route they took they covered distances of about 2,000 and 2,500 km on land and ship! Railway didn’t exist at that point in time.

Not clear is whether same traders also travelled in the USA to sell their seeds to the emigrated German communities. For the following people no emigration remark is recorded. For the sisters Ernestine and Bertha I would guess more on an emigration than a trade trip.
Any hint would be highly appreciated.
