Straub Family Brooklyn, New York (maybe N. Jersey)

My great grandfather, Joseph or Josef Straub immigrated to Brooklyn sometime between 1890 and 1910.Is believed to have used the surname VonStraub for a time.Had two sons, Joseph, who left Brooklyn and apparently established several families around the country and Arthur, who remained in Brooklyn and married Anna Mae Wilson.Had three sons, Thomas, Arthur, Richard, and two daughters Jane (deceased in childhood) and Janet.
Don't know if that's any help.I have not been able to identify to a certainty any immigration record for his arrival.
