This database contains information from Volumes 32 through 56 of the same-named series published by Scholarly Resources, Inc., which was the first extensive, indexed source of German surname immigrants.
An invaluable resource for any genealogists researching their German ancestor's origins, this database contains information on approximately 1.5 million individuals who arrived in the United States between 1875 and 1888. An important feature of this series is that it includes individuals who came to America not only from German states or territories but also from countries such as France, Switzerland, or Luxembourg. Also, it covers the high point of German immigration to America (the years 1880 through 1885); during that period, 797,900 Germans immigrated to America.
