Planning a Research Trip to Germany III
DearREADERS,
In "Planning a Research Trip to Germany I"
I promised researcher Patc121@aol.com some
more advice on preparing for her ancestral quest in Germany this fall.
Part II listed my top five thoughts for proceeding with her preparation.
The purpose of this article is to list a good selection of Germany related
genealogy web sites.
German Genealogy Cross-Index - from FEEFHS.
I always think of John Movious' work with the Federation of Eastern European
Family History Societies located at: http://feefhs.org/indexger.html
Germany GenWeb
http://www.rootsweb.com/~wggerman/
Linda Peterson did a series of articles
about Genealogical Research in Germany including:
 |
CYNDI's LIST includes 48,650 links, categorized & cross-referenced,
in over 120 categories with 12,650+ uncategorized new links in the
works.
For her GERMANY specific sites indexed at:
http://www.cyndislist.com/germany.htm |
Of particular interest with your "Black Forest" (Schwartzwald)
research is this site I found by by visiting Cyndi's List - Black Forest Genealogy
http://www.websters.net/blackforest/
Here you'll find a great map!

"The Black Forest is named for
the beautiful mountain landscape with its dense population of pine
trees. It is a region of incomparably
unspoiled nature with its forests, mountains and
meadows." http://www.websters.net/blackforest/ |
Of course, you'll visit by John Fuller & Chris Gaunt's phenomenal
Genealogy Resources on the Internet located at:
http://members.aol.com/johnf14246/internet.html
For Germany-specific sites you'll find:
Using "Genealogy Resources on
the Internet" I found the following useful sites:
READERS, this listing is but a drop in the bucket when it comes to German
genealogical web sites, mail lists, maps and "how-to" sites. I
think these will keep PatC121@aol.com busy for a while!
