    1. [HESSE] Darmstadt archives: do I need the whole estate file?
    2. D.L. MacLaughlan-Dumes
    3. Has anyone here obtained archival material from the Hessisches Staatsarchiv Darmstadt and, if so, how did you determine what to order? I got a nice email from a representative to whom I'd written, asking about an estate file for my 4x great-grandfather Georg Philipp Schuchmann. Apparently the file runs to 320 pages and deals with multiple-year guardianship issues from 1817-1827. I may not need that level of detail. The cost for all 320 pages is a bit prohibitive but they're willing to send me either an inventory ("Vormundschaftsrechnungen") or a "mass reckoning" (not sure how else to translate "Masserechnung") for a more affordable rate. My goal is to find some reference to the date of my ancestor's death, his age at death, and perhaps (if I'm lucky) a reference to his parents' names. Does anyone here have a suggestion for what I should request? Which of the two options (the inventory or mass reckoning) is likely to be more helpful? Any ideas will be helpful, I'm sure, and I'd be grateful for clarification. Regards, Debra MacLaughlan-Dumes http://sakionline.net/familypage

So it is posible that the Borns or maybe a female ancestor did come from somewhere else in Europe. Aditionally, after the 30 Years War, inmigration was encouraged by many german rulers in order to repopulate their lands, and many at the time of the church reformation received groups fleeing their homes, in the case of France they were mainly hugonots (hope I got the spelling right).

    3. When I was growing up, I remember hearing talk from my maternal relatives of their fear of being placed in concentration camps, because they're German descendants, during World War I and World War II. Given what happened to Japanese- -Americans during World War II, their fear was not that far-fetched. Pat McCoy, M.S.

I would LOVE to know why some people (my Grandmother included) never mentioned the name “Germany” but dramatically “dropped the name” of Alsace-Lorraine whenever she thought someone might be listening. Ah, she was a drama teacher, but I also wonder if back in the 30’s and the 40’s if the hatred and fear of Hitler caused this to be a factor in her (and many other people) not ever mentioning that her (their) people came from Germany. From what I have learned from all of you today is that Alzey is about 60 miles from the border of Alsace-Lorraine, and never was included within this border. So to me this is seeming more and more like a fairy-story that was conjured up because no one coming from Germany wanted to talk about their past! My Alsatian gg-g grandfather, my foot! My GERMAN GG-Grandfather, and I am proud of him! If I had been unwilling to look past Alsace-Lorraine, I would have NEVER found my ancestors! I started out on the Rootsweb Alsace-Lorraine list, then migrated to the Baden-Wurttemburg one, and then once I got to the HESSE sight, the answers started to flow! And ALWAYS will I remember Alexia for this. Bless her! And bless all of you!
