So fascinating!!! I can’t wait to share this too with other family members!
Vielen Dank für das ausführliche Gespräch. Das wird eine große Hilfe sein, mehr Informationen über meine Vorfahren in Sachsen und der Region Stralsund zu erhalten.
Well organized huge presentation - easy to follow along. Wonderful to learn the many reasons over time for emigrations from 'Germany'. And the possible places to look for records driven by governing and social changes. Many thanks Ursula!
Great
I spent 6 years over 3 tours of duty in Germany during the 60s to 80s. I learned what I could about each place I was stationed. In about an hour, Ursula fit it all together to make more sense. She covered what others usually overlook. Thank you for an enjoyable and informative time.
The historical perspective and religion controlled areas may be very helpful in explaining the timing of some of my German family immigration to the USA and where I should look for records. Thank you very much.
great presentation, covering a wide area of interest
Excellent presentation! Relevant historical information, presented in a highly palatable way!
Excellent webinar. Ursula did a wonderful job and I will definitely want to watch this again.
