Looking for Jung in Bingen-on-the-Rhine

[PamulaH]

Looking for Frederick C Jung born around 1847 in Bingen-on-the-Rhine (Prussia, at the time) - and his ancestors.  Any help appreciated.  He came to San Francisco about 1870. His brother was Wilhelm Jung, born 1839.

Hi
not much info to go on. Jung is quite a common name in Germany
I have found something that my be of interest

There is a place called Waldböckelheim, 30 Km from Bingen

https://www.waldboeckelheim.de/

their hompage has a chronicle in which they say that:

The 1840s were marked by great hardship and poverty, many emigrated to the "New World":
45 citizens of Waldböckelheim emigrated to America in the following years.

I found a birth for, Wilhelm Jung 27.6.1839 in Waldböckelheim, Father Nicolaus, Mother Elisabetha Hahn

They had another child, Phillip, born 1837
I have found nothing on Friedrich Carl (Carl Friedrich) yet.

If you think this is your lot, let me know, and we´ll take it from there
Regards
