Our first known LAESSER to America was Johan Caspar Lasser arriving from Bremmen Germany and landing in the Port of New York City In June of 1850 aboard the passenger ship HEIRAM.
From his arrival to 1854 I lost track of him until I found him in the Buffalo census of 1861. He apparently arrived in Buffalo prior to 1856 as the census indicated his first born was Bertha in 1856.
