EIGHTEENTH CENTURY EMIGRANTS FROM GERMAN-SPEAKING LANDS TO NORTH
AMERICA-- Vol. 2: The Western Palatinate, by Annette K. Burgert, 1985.
(Item#: PA-069 $40.00) (Vol. I, which concerned emigrants from the Northern
Kraichgau, is out of print.) A tour-de-force of investigative work, this
volume was created to help identify the European origins of Penna.-German
families. In addition to published lists, the author consulted church
records, family genealogies, tombstone inscriptions, and previously
untranslated German sources. This series is especially important because,
for the majority of these emigrants, there are no known records of their
asking permission to leave their homeland. This volume contains information on
about 500 families.

previously published in separate volumes in Germany. Using immigration data,
tax records, bondage release papers, bills, etc., Hacker pinned down the

destination.
