GEN-DE Correct List?
Sandy Boleware
Hello, I am new to German research. Basically, I don't know what records are available for my area of interest, and would appreciate someone telling me the best list to join. What I have:
Chambers, Theodore Frelinghuysen. The Early Germans of New Jersey: Their History, Churches and Genealogies (Baltimore, Genealogical Publishing Company, 1969) pg. 280
BUSENBERRY
Johannes (John) Bosenberger (Busenberry), came from the village of Sehlen, jurisdiction of Rosenkal, county of Braunfels, Germany, and was a woolen and linen weaver and the son of Johannes Bosenberger and his wife, Maria; bought 186 acres of John Reading in Amwell, 11 Feb., 1748...Dr. Race has the certificate of birth of Johannes Bosenberger, the date of which is unfortunately torn off; his will dated Amwell, 5 Oct., 1773, names children,
I. Abraham
II. John
III. Cheretraait, (Gertraut or Gertrude)
IV. Elisabeth
I would appreciate any assistance in finding the best list to join which would have other people researching in the above area.
Thank you for any help,
Sandy
