Book German Americana in Europe

Download or read book German Americana in Europe written by Don Heinrich Tolzmann and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 686 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you are one of the sixty million Americans who trace their heritage to German-speaking lands, you are probably already familiar with Don Heinrich Tolzmann's prolific dissemination of books on German-American history and genealogy. In this two-for-one reprint, Dr. Tolzmann has combined related books originally published by the Department of Historical Research of the Carnegie Institution of Washington. The original works are Marion Dexter Learned's Guide to the Manuscript Materials Relating to American History in the German State Archives (1912) and Albert B. Faust's Guide to the Materials for American History in Swiss and Austrian Archives (1916). According to Dr. Tolzmann's introduction, these octogenarian books are still of value because of their specific focus on the German-Americana materials within the archives. Genealogists may discover many new avenues of research through the cited sources that deal with emigration from the German-speaking lands to settlements in the U.S. This publication also stands out among guides to German archives for covering Austria and Switzerland as well as Germany. The extensive name and subject indices from each of the original books are included in this reprint. These indices will guide the researcher through the plethora of mostly 18th and 19th century citations of political papers, passenger lists, personal diaries, diplomatic letters and other materials. These materials are arranged in descending order from cantonal to municipal institutions, so items may also be looked up by region using the table of contents.

Book German Archives as Sources of German American History  Vol  5  Classic Reprint

Download or read book German Archives as Sources of German American History Vol 5 Classic Reprint written by J. G. Rosengarten and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from German Archives as Sources of German-American History, Vol. 5 There yet remain many sources of information unexhausted as to details of the part played by Germans in American history. In the archives at Marburg, still made practically inaccessible by the want of interest of the keeper in American history, there must be much of value and interest in American history, there must be much of value and interest. Every German officer was required to make full reports for the home authorities and to keep journals for inspection - few of these have been printed. It would be well for the Pennsylvania German Society to invite co-operation of similar bodies in asking the U. S. Government to secure from the German Government access to the Marburg and other collections, and to make calendars with a descriptive account of the most interesting papers. The Library of Congress is having such calendars made in the State Paper Office and other record depositories in England, of papers relating to American history, particularly that of the Revolution. In a recent volume of the invaluable publication, the Report of the English Historical Commission, there are detailed descriptions of various matters relating to the German soldiers serving with the British in this country. There are curious and interesting descriptions of the efforts made by the American authorities to secure recruits from the German soldiers who were prisoners of war - both men and officers reported quite fully on this subject, and clearly there must have been many successful conversions of the German soldiers into good Americans, for substantial inducements and rewards were held out.

  • ISBN : 0801471168
  • Pages : 302 pages

Download or read book Becoming German written by Philip L. Otterness and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2013-11-12 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Becoming German tells the intriguing story of the largest and earliest mass movement of German-speaking immigrants to America. The so-called Palatine migration of 1709 began in the western part of the Holy Roman Empire, where perhaps as many as thirty thousand people left their homes, lured by rumors that Britain's Queen Anne would give them free passage overseas and land in America. They journeyed down the Rhine and eventually made their way to London, where they settled in refugee camps. The rumors of free passage and land proved false, but, in an attempt to clear the camps, the British government finally agreed to send about three thousand of the immigrants to New York in exchange for several years of labor. After their arrival, the Palatines refused to work as indentured servants and eventually settled in autonomous German communities near the Iroquois of central New York.Becoming German tracks the Palatines' travels from Germany to London to New York City and into the frontier areas of New York. Philip Otterness demonstrates that the Palatines cannot be viewed as a cohesive "German" group until after their arrival in America; indeed, they came from dozens of distinct principalities in the Holy Roman Empire. It was only in refusing to assimilate to British colonial culture—instead maintaining separate German-speaking communities and mixing on friendly terms with Native American neighbors—that the Palatines became German in America.
