How do I find German records? Information I do have: Julius Zuch born about 1821 arrived in New York, New York in 1857 with wife Henriette age 31 and son Rudolph age 5 along with Daughter Bertha age 2. Also have an 1880 Census saying that both Henriette and Julius were born in Prussia. I am just not sure on how to find any records from Prussia Germany. Any tips on how I can locate this information, or is this just a dead end for me. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
