German Immigration to America: When, Why, How, and Where

By Stephen Szabados

Why did our German ancestors immigrate; when did they leave; how did they get here; where did they settle? If you are researching your family history, this book will help you find the answers to these questions. I included descriptions of aspects in the history of German immigration to America, and I hope the material gives you some insights into possible answers to your questions about your ancestors' immigration. Remember that each immigrant has a unique story, and it is our challenge to dig out as many details of their immigration saga as we can when researching our family history. This search includes matching some of the reasons listed in this book to parts of their stories and then merge them with the rest of your family's oral history. Hopefully, this book will help point the way so you will be able to add more facts to your family history and bring your ancestors alive.Our immigrant ancestors are the foundation of our roots in the United States. Our lives would be much different if they did not endure the challenges of emigration from Germany. Do not underestimate their contributions. They may have left us some material wealth, but the most meaningful gift they left is their descendants and their role in the factories and farms of the United States. Their lives were building blocks in the growth of their new country.
