Does anyone know if there are any census records extant for Germany circa 1900? I have a British national, Helen Constance Scott, who married a German citizen, Hans Winterfeldt at St Philip’s, South Kensington on 8 September 1898. A Mr and Mrs Winterfeldt are among 800 passengers booked on the S.S. Teutonic which left Liverpool on 12 October 1898, bound for New York. According to the U.S. Immigration manifest, only 757 passengers arrived in New York on 20 October, of which 340 had actually embarked, not at Liverpool, but at Queenstown, County Cork on 13 October. The Winterfeldts do not appear on the Immigration manifest so I assume that like the other 41 missing passengers they must have disembarked at Queenstown. Neither of them appear in the censuses for 1900/1901 in the U.S.A., Ireland or the U.K. On 15 July 1907, Helen Constance Winterfeldt, née Scott, single!!, married Ernest Chittenden Bridges at Paddington, All Saints. As she does not claim to be widowed, it seems reasonable to suppose she was divorced, but she does not appear in the Divorce Records on FindMyPast. It therefore looks as if my only chance of discovering how and when her first marriage ended is to find where she was living between 1898 and 1907, hence my interest in Germany. Any pointers would be most welcome. Regards George Bush
