I know this is off the subject a little so please excuse me because I'm new to this. I have been researching the Baer surname. I found a Johan Baer that I am interested in the list of Hessians who stayed after the war- he is listed as from Bayreuth and deserted in 1782. Is the HETRINA on the internet somewhere?

HETRINA , volumes 1, 2 and 6 have dozens of entries for the surname George, I did not check the other volumes. -----Original Message----- From: Susan King Sent: Friday, December 16, 2011 7:52 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [AMREV-HESSIANS] Were Hessian soldiers commonly refered to as"Georges?"
