We resume our tour of German states with a visit to Nordrhein-Westfalen.
All research is local! Just as in each of the United States, research in each German state is both general and specific. This year we are exploring the history, geography, and research opportunities for each of the modern German states and city-states
Searching for German-speaking ancestors? Changing borders, missing records, reading German script, and then there is the language barrier. Do any of these problems sound familiar? Check <GRIVA.org>, German SIG tab, to see the SIG’s agenda and for links mentioned in past sessions.
Sylvia Elchinger, the Monument Avenue Family History Center’s resident German expert, leads discussions focusing on Europe’s German-speaking countries, and areas included in the one-time German Empire. Reply Reply All
