Friedrich Missler (1858-1922) was the founder in 1881 of a German travel agency that specialized in passage for emigrants to the United States, using North German Lloyd Lines, which mostly used Hoboken as its home port in America. Missler had many European offices outside of its headquarters in Bremen and also served Poland and the Slavic countries. Missler was one of the most important and prolific "forwarders" of emigrants to America.
