From an unidentified compilation of biographies, probably published about 1986.
"Since no employment could be found they [Christ Hopken and Anna Oellien] decided to come to america to locate as Mr. Hopken's uncle had located here in 1868. Their journey was also their honeymoon. They left Streuckhausen, Germany on May 15, 1889 and arrived at Baltimore, Maryland on May 29, 1889."
The Hopkens were bound for Ohiowa, Fillmore County, Nebraska. "It was June 3rd when they arrived at Fairmont, Nebraska and then continued on to Ohiowa." They located on a small farm southeast of Ohiowa owned by Christian's uncle, Henry Hopken, who had immigrated to Nebraska in 1868.
