Well, a bunch of my ancestors did that. Obviously, that had to get off a
boat somewhere along the east coast and then travel, but they
essentially didn't stop 'til they got to Wisconsin where they settled
permanently. In a literal sense, it wasn't possible for them to go
straight to Wisconsin from Germany -- too much ocean and land in the
way! But in a practical sense, they set out from Germany with the intent
of going to Wisconsin. There is quite a bit of information available on
the web about this. One place to start would be
http://www.rootsweb.com/~gbhs/Landskroneng.html. The article includes
information about settlements, ships and family names.
