    Foreign Policy Research Institute FOOTNOTES www.fpri.org The Newsletter of FPRI’s Wachman Center May 2012 The Battle of the Meuse-Argonne, 1918: Harbinger of American Great Power on the European Continent? By Michael S. Neiberg Michael S. Neiberg is Professor of History at the US Army War College and an established authority on the Great War. His writing has been recognized with a Choice Outstanding Academic Title award, a Tomlinson Prize for best book on World War I, and a Harry Frank Guggenheim fellowship. In 2011, Harvard University Press published his Dance of the Furies: Europe and the Outbreak of World War I which looked at popular reactions to the outbreak of the Great War. In 2012, Basic Books will publish his Blood of Free Men: The Liberation of Paris, 1944. This essay is based on his talk to FPRI’s History Institute for Teachers on “Great Battles and How They Have Shaped American History,” cosponsored and hosted by the First Division Museum at Cantigny, Wheaton, IL, on April 21-22, 2012. Audio/Video file, powerpoints, and texts from the weekend conference are available here: http://www.fpri.org/education/1204greatbattles/ Standing on Governor’s Island, just south of Manhattan, Elizabeth Coles Marshall watched her husband George board the SS Baltic with 190 of his fellow US Army officers. They were the vanguard of the new American Expeditionary Forces (AEF) command system, led by Gen. John Pershing. In order to maintain secrecy, the men were directed to come to Governor’s Island in civilian clothes, although many wore their Army shoes and a few even carried swords on their belts.

    Researching in the Alsace-Lorraine Region of France Guidance on how to best utilize the French Archives website for your German connection Helpful information created by the Midwest Genealogy Center Staff for their German Genealogy Discussion Group French Links – Free - Online http://archives.bas-rhin.fr http://fr.geneawiki.com/index.php/Archives_en_ligne Most of the French emigration happened from the Alsace-Lorraine region in the northeast part of France. The vital records (births, marriages, and deaths) for this region are freely accessible online. You will need to know the place name (community, village, in French, the “Commune”) The Records What is special: The church records are under the Civil Registry Offices – the “Etat Civil” (Civil Records). What is easier when dealing with these records - the names are also on the sides of the record pages. After each year, there is usually an Index of all the names for that particular year. In addition, after every ten years, there should be another Name Index for the decade. Translation Various options - you can print the page or enlarge the text and work letter by letter, word by word with the Familysearch.org French Genealogy Word List (on the FamilySearch.org website under the Search and Wiki link.) In the MGC collection is a very helpful book: Following the Paper Trail: A Multilingual Translation Guide, by Jonathan D. Shea & William F. Hoffman. It is available for checkout or interlibrary loan. You will find the example of the translation of the French birth record on pages 65 – 67, and Selected Vocabulary Terms on pages 76 – 79.
