Subject: [ROOTS-L] Re: Immigration from Germany

Hello Ralph,

For some ideas on locating your German ancestor's hometown in Germany see...

Basic Research Guide for German Genealogy
http://home.att.net/~wee-monster/outline.html

Scroll down to where it says, "Find your Immigrant Ancestor."

Happy searching.

Regards,
Joe
