Johann Christian Theodor Nehrenz was baptized on March 12, 1820 in Trollenhagen, Germany. Then in Cleveland he sat and listened to sermons preached from this pulpit, after having left his ancestral church where he was confirmed in 1834. What faith it took to move his whole family in 1869 to America, when he was already 49 years old!

This is the Castle on Battery Park where all the Nehrenz’s coming from Germany would have walked through the doors to enter the United States.
