April 15 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Topic — The Disappearance of German-Americans
Speaker — Dr. Jeremy Best
During the 1800s, nearly 6 million Germans immigrated to the United States. Many of them settled in Iowa and lively German-speaking communities emerged in every county of the state, proudly declaring their heritage. Where did they go? Dr. Jeremy Best will offer a presentation explaining why so many Iowans’ German ancestors “disappeared.”
PARTICIPATE IN PERSON OR ONLINE.
A Zoom link will be posted on the Ames Public Library page before the event.
Presented in partnership with Ames Public Library and Story County Genealogical Society.
