Hi, list -- Here are a few sources which I've been able to find through search engines which may help those of you doing research in Germany. Most of these are not specifically about Huguenot research but they may be of use anyway. 1) The German genealogical magazine Familienkundliche Nachrichten (known as FANA) is published every two months by Verlag Degener and Co., Postfach 1340, 91413 Neustadt (Aisch). It has a circulation of about 12,000. You can send them a query in English which will be translated by them into German for the magazine. The most-recent known cost for this service was around $20 US. You will be billed before the query is published. The same company also publishes books (in German) of genealogical interest and will mail you details on request. If you do send a query for the magazine, try to keep it short butinclude what you know about your German background with dates, locations, names and emigration info, etc. 2) The following two books are on either film or fiche through LDS research facilities. They can be ordered from Salt Lake at any FHC (Family History Centre). If you're not sure where the nearest FHC is in your area, go to this specific URL on the LDS site which lists FHC's worldwide and their locations --http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Library/FHC/frameset_fhc.asp. Here are the two books -- a) Swiss Emigrants to the Palatinate in Germany and to America 1650-1800 and Huguenots to the Palatinate and Germany by H.F. MACCO. This is on LDS films # 0823861 (A-L) and # 0823862 (M-Z). The text in German, English, and French. There is an index (on the second film). b) "Zerstreut in alle Winde" (Scattered to all the Winds), 1685-1720, by Eugen BELLON. This is an English translation of historical papers originally published in by the German Huguenot Society. It describes the Dauphine French Huguenots’ migration into Italy, Switzerland, and Germany. The original text has been revised and enlarged to include recent discoveries supplied by the author. Includes index of names and places. This book is available on the shelves of the FH Library in Salt Lake with call numbers 944.97/Q1 W2b. It's also on a set of four microfiche with the following number: 6068505. It may also be available somewhere for purchase, having been published in 1983 by Belle Publications of West Lafayette, Indiana, USA. The ISBN/ISSN: 0960573216 3) The LDS site (www.familysearch.org) also lists some Research Guides and Helps which are worth investigating -- *Go to the Research Helps section at this URL -- http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Search/rg/frameset_rhelps.asp where you will find a list of information which is helpful to German research such as: Determining a Place of Origin in Germany, Genealogical Handbook of German Research, German Genealogical Word List, German Letter-Writing Guide, Germany Research Outline, Handwriting Guide: German Gothic, How to Use the Meyers Gazetteer, Map of Modern Germany, Map of the German Empire 1871 to1918. *There is also Research Guidance for various German locations. Go to URL http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Search/RG/frameset_rg.asp where there is an alphabetical list of locations to choose from. 4) The German Genealogical Digest (GGD) has a Subject and Locality Index which lists many books and articles on Germany. For example, the following URL lists titles beginning H to L, including a couple about Huguenots. The URL is at http://feefhs.org/pub/ggdsl-hl.html. Back issues of the German Genealogical Digest are also available. Please go to URL http://feefhs.org/pub/ggd-bi.html for more info. The URL's above are part of the web site of the Federation of East European Family History Societies at http://feefhs.org/. There is also a German Genealogy Cross-Index list as part of this site which is at http://feefhs.org/indexger.html. 5) Here is a web site which lists German addresses which might be helpful to a researcher, such as archives and other genealogical organizations. There are two URL's: http://www.maxpages.com/ourlostfamily/Germany or http://64.225.121.177/ourlostfamily/Germany. I think this is a part of the Ancestry.com site but I'm not sure. Many specific German locations and cities are listed. There was also the following address which was more general: Zentralstelle für Genealogie (Central Office for Genealogy), Kathe-Kollwitz-Strasse 82 04109 Leipzig. Also, try the following URL which has links to further addresses: http://www.bawue.de/~hanacek/info/darchi16.htm. It's the site for the Archive in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland Thüringen. 6) Finally, here is a site which provides you instant online translation from English to many European languages, including German (and also from those languages into English). The URL is http://www.babelfish.altavista.digital.com. This service is not perfect. Keep text simple and straightforward for best results. It doesn't work for older forms of some languages such as French because the spelling is different from modern-day. If anyone has a better site for translations, I would like to know about it -- and I'm sure others on the list would too. Does anyone have further suggestions to add to this list?
