GSC Notes and News for Germany

Following our recent German Research Seminar with Eric Kopittke , I have noted some of the useful sites mentioned by Eric in his talk... 

plus some others contributed by other members.

Find My Past ( Australia)

A very useful title for those researching shipping from Hamburg, Germany to Australia and New Zealand is Emigrants from Hamburg to Australasia 1850-1879 

At our GSC Resource Centre, we also have the CD version which includes all of these records with many additional search options, plus copies of some of the books, and microfiche versions of the same records.

Printouts are available from the CD.
