Besides the permission to emigrate, I also have my great-grandfather's military discharge paper posted on my site. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~monajo/labs/mltry.htm Declaration of intent to become a US citizen: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~monajo/labs/citcert.htm Pommern marriage certificate: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~monajo/labs/marrcert.htm These documents were found in a box of papers given to my second cousin. He doesn't read German, and had no idea what they were, but he scanned them and sent them (the scans) to me. I had been searching for years to find the town of origin of this couple, and these papers were such a wonderful surprise.
