Hi Listers, I found a great book called "Researching in Germany: A handbook for your visit to the homeland of your ancestors." It was written by Roger P. MINERT and Shirley J. RIEMER. It was published in 2001 by the Lorelei Press. The ISBN is:0-9656761-5-3. It sells for $18.95. It contains absolutely anything and everything you would want to know for a trip to Germany to do genealogy. See if your library or book store has it. Beth STEINBERG ARNOTT
