Researching in Germany
The initial edition of Researching in Germany was printed in California on September 11, 2001. The second edition of this book was published about ten years after the original edition. It contained hundreds of changes to the original text because of the world's transition into the digital age.
Although the second edition text is now ten years old, the valuable information contained in its 269 pages still gives the insight needed to plan a successful trip to Germany.
For instance:
-
National holidays are easy to identify but often only local residents will know about state or church holidays. There are also many regional observances. Don't make the mistake of planning your long awaited trip to your home town in Germany only to find out that the church or archive is closed. Request appointments to churches and archives before you finalize you airline travel.

German Immigrants
in American Church Records
The toughest challenge to
American family history researchers is to find documentation proving an immigrant's hometown.
Dr. Minert is attempting to facilitate a solution by sponsoring and supervising a team of students who read German church records and collect genealogical data.
Since the initiation of this project in 2003 there have been 38 volumes published and over a hundred students employed.
"GIACR has changed
the way we do Germanic genealogy in the
Family History Library."
