At age 48, Johannes Schoeppner, his 45 year old pregnant wife Katherina, and their seven children left for America in 1835. Katharina gave birth to a daughter during the voyage. Katherina and her 6 year old son Herman died during the voyage to America. Although he lived another 40 years, Johannes never remarried. After what must have been a very difficult voyage Johannes arrived in America mourning the loss of his wife and youngest son.
The list of passengers for the Brig Ulysses show 50 year old sheppard, Johan Hohmann and his wife Anna Maria (49) and 10 year old Sebastian Hohmann. They were travelling from Mittelkalbach, Germany having left Bremen and arriveing in Baltimore on July 6, 1835.

John Schoeppner came from Wheeling to the farm on which his fifteen year old son Leonard lived in 1837 and built a house to which he removed his family in the following year. In the second year he met with a serious misfortune, getting his leg broken.
