"I was told this story by one of my father's sisters but cannot remember which one. Bill's decision to come to the New World was based on the fact that his elder brother was going to inherit the family business and the younger brother had joined the church so as the middle brother, Bill had no prospects in Denmark. He could not afford to purchase a ticket on a ship bound for America so he signed himself on as the captain's cabin boy. It was the captain's learned opinion that Bill's name was entirely too long and not appropriately Americanized and should be changed to reflect his adopted country to William Henry. The Kattentit was just dropped as entirely too foreign. The ship was bound for New York but on arrival the port was closed due to a smallpox epidemic. I'm not sure why the next port of call was New Orleans rather than some of the other eastern ports but that was the reason Bill started his American life in Louisiana."
