It is two years in the future, at best, and it may be nothing of value for one whose ancestor emigrated from the Baden area but the town of Hamburg is building a Museum, "BallinStadt", a museum which "is to recreate, on a smaller scale, the stories behind the largest period of German emigration to America between 1850 and 1954". Early information on the museum can be found at < http://www.germany-info.org/relaunch/culture/new/cul_ballinstadt_1_2005.html > in case you would care to know the plans for this future historical museum. djweber [email protected]
