  • February 2016 IMMIGRANTS and THEIR MONEY
    Volume 21 Issue 1 Jackson Historical Society February 2016 IMMIGRANTS AND THEIR MONEY During the 1800’s when many immigrants arrived in the United States, they paid for their passage in their own currency. The Pom- eranians who arrived in Jackson in the mid 1800’s brought with them the money they had accumulated in their home country from earnings and the sale of their property prior to emigrating. As the value of world coinage was generally based on gold and silver content, the Pomeranians brought with them Prussian gold and silver Thalers and smaller coins called Groschen or Pfennigs. Many of the transactions these “new” Americans made were carried on using these familiar coins. However, foreign coins were also Jackson Historical Society Museum circulating in America due to the lack of a robust supply of American money.

  • A Monetary History of German East Africa
    A MONETARY HISTORY OF GERMAN EAST AFRICA John E. Sandrock Prior to the mid nineteenth century, the east coast of Africa was known only to Arab traders. These dealers in human misery settled along the coast, only occasionally venturing into the interior with their caravans in search of slaves. As they began to penetrate further and further into the interior they also discovered ivory, which in time became as important to their commerce as slaves. Tabora and Ujiji, on Lake Tanganyika, became the most important trading posts along these routes. The first Europeans to show an interest in east Africa were missionaries of the London based Church Mission Society. At this time other explorers were active in their attempt to locate the source of the Nile River, thus stimulating interest in the region. These geographical explorations probed deeper and deeper into the interior, eventually leading to the discovery of Lake Victoria and Lake Nyasa by Richard Burton and John Speke. These men were soon followed by such well known adventurers as David Livingstone and H. M. Stanley. European interest in Africa increased rapidly. From 1860 onwards this interest turned to colonialism, whereupon the European powers divided Africa into political “spheres of influence” separated by international boundaries. In this way the entire continent, with few exceptions, was partitioned by European conquest and occupation. Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Belgium, Portugal and Spain each laid claim to African territory. Germany, together with Great Britain, focused its interest upon east Africa. These efforts began in 1884 when Dr. Karl Peters, one of the founders of the German Colonization Society, set out for east Africa in search of a suitable colony.
