Julius Böckenkamp came to the United States aboard the Bark Suwa. This ship normally departed from the port of Bremerhaven and arrived at the port of Galveston, Texas. Settling in New Braunfels, Comal County, Texas, his nationalization paperwork, submitted November 18, 1851, states he is a 28 year old from Germany. He was granted citizenship in the Spring of 1854. He married Wilhelmina Donerberg on December 26, 1852. While living in Texas, they had the following children: Helene Oberle, Herman Bockenkamp, Wilhelmina (Minnie) Eckert, Bertha Hambel, and Richard Bockenkamp. There is an indication that he served with Company A, 31st Brigade in Texas. Possibly just after the war, the family moved to Sainte Genevieve County in Missouri. They had three more children: Emma Burleigh, Caroline and Gustav Bockenkamp.
