What was called, in German, Memel in Eastern Prussia is now called Klaipėda in Lithuania.

So, nowhere near Baden! It's 1756 km (1091 miles) away! ;D

Thank you. I am researching a german family. The father Frederick Schaumburg was entered on marriage certificate as a soldier so the family could have travelled.
According to my research the family left their homeland Baden Germany in the early 1800s to travel to USA. There were 7 brothers some of whom settled in Minnesota USA One brother Francis Schaumburg c 1821 came to Liverpool. Information on census records say he was born in Memmel Prussia ( which I know has changed names ) I am trying to link him with Minnesota family. One of the family OrtWin E Schaumburg born Minnesota 02/05/1903 died Los Angeles 29/07/1964 married a lady from Liverpool ( I have details ) His father was George Schaumburg 1872-1953 ( Minnesota His father was Frederich Schaumburg
I wonder if there is a link.
