German Immigrants in Buffalo & WNY

German Immigrants in Buffalo & WNY In-Person

Buffalo’s history is a story of immigrants. Among the first immigrants were people from the German “states."  In fact, individuals of German heritage comprise the largest immigrant group to settle in the United States as a whole. The nation of Germany as we know it was not established until the completion of the Franco-Prussian war around 1870. The talk covers early immigration prior to this period through the early part of the 20th century. It will also include information about the speaker’s family that came from what is now the Alsace region of France.
