German-American Genealogical Research -
Monograph Number 9
Clifford Neal
Smith's primary goals has been to rescue
buried data pertaining to 18th- and
19th-century Germany emigration and make
it available to researchers.
Smith's German-American Genealogical Research
Monographs, from which we have reprinted this
booklet, was an important instrument for achieving
that objective. Smith's list of emigrants from Fuerstenberg
is based on a 1937 article by Hermann Baier that
compared emigration patterns from that principality
over three widely scattered years. Most of the
emigrants who did not go to America traveled instead
to Hungary, from which their descendants might have
later left for the U.S. For each individual,
this work gives name, place of origin, year of
emigration, destination (if known), source, and such
comments as name of spouse, place or date of
marriage, whether married before, name of parent(s),
and so forth. 0806352515 |
