# Best Published Resources for German Research in America

## Thursday, June 12, 3:00-4:00 p.m. ET

##### Presented by Rhonda R. McClure

German immigrants first arrived to American shores in large numbers in the late 17th century, and today nearly 45 million Americans have German heritage. Published resources are an essential tool for researching your German-American ancestors. There are treasure troves of published resources including general guides, dictionaries (both for words and surnames), books on paleography, and published records including immigration, census, and military records. Join Senior Genealogist Rhonda R. McClure as she shares her go-to published resources for German family history research in America.
