  • GERMAN IMMIGRANTS, AFRICAN AMERICANS, and the RECONSTRUCTION of CITIZENSHIP, 1865-1877 DISSERTATION Presented In
    NEW CITIZENS: GERMAN IMMIGRANTS, AFRICAN AMERICANS, AND THE RECONSTRUCTION OF CITIZENSHIP, 1865-1877 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Alison Clark Efford, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2008 Doctoral Examination Committee: Professor John L. Brooke, Adviser Approved by Professor Mitchell Snay ____________________________ Adviser Professor Michael L. Benedict Department of History Graduate Program Professor Kevin Boyle ABSTRACT This work explores how German immigrants influenced the reshaping of American citizenship following the Civil War and emancipation. It takes a new approach to old questions: How did African American men achieve citizenship rights under the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments? Why were those rights only inconsistently protected for over a century? German Americans had a distinctive effect on the outcome of Reconstruction because they contributed a significant number of votes to the ruling Republican Party, they remained sensitive to European events, and most of all, they were acutely conscious of their own status as new American citizens. Drawing on the rich yet largely untapped supply of German-language periodicals and correspondence in Missouri, Ohio, and Washington, D.C., I recover the debate over citizenship within the German-American public sphere and evaluate its national ramifications. Partisan, religious, and class differences colored how immigrants approached African American rights. Yet for all the divisions among German Americans, their collective response to the Revolutions of 1848 and the Franco-Prussian War and German unification in 1870 and 1871 left its mark on the opportunities and disappointments of Reconstruction.

  • Political Life of the German-Americans in Baltimore
    REMINISCENCES OF THE Political Life of the German-Americans in Baltimore DURING THE YEARS 185O—1860. REMINISCENCES OF THE POLITICAL LIFE OF THE GERMAN-AMERICANS IN BALTIMORE DURING THE YEARS 1850—1860. Continued from Page 59—Seventh Annual Report. PART II. By LOUIS P. HENNIGHAUSEN. EFORE I continue my narrative of the persecution and sufferings of the German-Americans under the regime Bof the American Party in the City of Baltimore dur- ing the years of 1850 to 1860, I deem it necessary, for a bet- ter understanding of the political situation of those years, to refer more at length to the conduct of a part of the Ger- man-Americans in the Country at large, which to some ex- tent influenced the formation of the American, so-called Know-Nothing Party. The immigration had from the year 1849 increased to about 400,000 and more persons annually, being each year in numbers about equal to the total number of inhabitants of such States as Maryland, North Carolina, Alabama, Georgia, 4 and twice the number of such States as Louisiana and South Carolina. If these immigrants were inimical to slavery, it was an easy arithmetical problem to figure the time, when slavery would be abolished, and the author of the celebrated Madison Letters in defense of the American Party, laid great stress on this coming result. The literary and leading men of the German immigration of these years, with some excep- tions, shared the political views of those we have seen active in our City of Baltimore. The temerity of the so-styled free Germans in Louisville, Ky., and Richmond, Va., however ex- ceeded our Baltimore champions.

  • German-American Turner Lyric
    THE GERMAN-AMERICAN TURNER LYRIC. The German-American Turner Lyric. By Professor M. D. Learned, Ph. D., University of Pennsylvania.. THE trumpet-blast of Napoleon which announced the forma- tion of the Rheinbund and sounded the knell of the old German Empire in the year 1806, awoke a race of infant giants and heralded the Titanic throes which were to attend the birth of the New German Empire of 1871. The wavering shadow of the Holy Roman Empire vanished into the realm of kindred shades, and the Germans now stood face to face with the dismantled remains of a once majestic nation fast in the clutches of the hereditary foe. Who should come forth to gather the disjected members and breathe new life into the quivering mass? The Princes were stricken with dread and feared, even their own subjects, while the sword of the Corsican conqueror flashed doom to the Teutonic nations beyond the Rhine. Between monarchical oppression and the horrors of anarchy the people were bewildered which to choose. Schiller two years before in Wilhelm Tell had spoken the word of hope through the mouth of the dying Attinghausen: „Drum haltet fest zusammen — fest und ewig — Kein Ort der Freiheit sei dem Andern fremd — Hochwachten stellet aus auf euren Bergen, Dass sich der Bund zum Bunde rasch versammle: Seid einig — einig — einig —" *) The newly awakened giants were hero-prophets inaugurat- ing themselves as actors the vision they saw—the vision of a united Fatherland drawing the elements of its strength from the revival of early Germanic traditions.

  • In Memoriam of Karl Schurz
    81 Karl Schurz Correspondirendes Mitglied des Vereins. ------------------ Gebet von George Elliot. Frei übersetzt von Louis P. Hennighausen. O, sei es mir vergönnt mich anzuschliessen, An die Schaar der unsterblich Todten, die im Geiste Solcher fortleben, welche durch ihr Wirken veredelt Anregend stets zu höherem Seelenadel, Im Wandel mutiger Aufrichtigkeit, Verachtend Ziele welche mit uns selbst erlöschen, Mit hohem Sinn, wie die Sterne das Dunkel der Nacht Mit ihrer milden Beharrlichkeit durchdringend Die Menschen anspornten im Streben nach höheren Resultaten, So zu leben ist göttlich und im Wohlklang mit der Schöpfung. ----------------- At the regular monthly meeting of "The Society for the History of the Germans in Maryland," held on Tuesday, May 15, 1906, the president, Louis P. Hennighausen, Esq., announced the death of Hon. Carl Schurz, a corresponding member of this Society, which occurred on the previous day—May 14th—at his home in New York City. Pursuant to a resolution adopted it was decided that this Society issue a call through the press of the city, but especially through the columns of "Der Deutsche Correspondent" and the "Baltimore Journal," inviting all citizens interested to attend a preliminary meeting the following evening—May 16, at Har- monie Hall, to take action looking to the holding of a general meeting at which arrangements could be made to honor the distinguished deceased soldier-statesman, Carl Schurz. 82 The prompt initiative taken by this Society was made manifest the next morning in the following announcement: Aufruf! Alle deutsch-amerikanischen Bürger Baltimore's, welche das Andenken ihres grossen Zeitgenossen Carl Schurz ehren, sind ersucht, sich heute abend 8 Uhr in der Harmonie- Halle, 414 West Fayette-Strasse, einzufinden, zur Berathung und Arrangirung einer passenden Gedächtnisfeier des Ver- storbenen, für nächsten Sonntag Nachmittag.

  • Review Essay
    Review Essay DANIEL NAGEL Frank Baron. Abraham Lincoln and the German Immigrants: Turners and Forty-Eighters (Yearbook of German-American Studies, Supple- mental Issue, Vol. 4). Lawrence, Kan.: The Society for German- American Studies, 2012. Pp., 254. Frank Baron’s new study, Abraham Lincoln and the German Immigrants: Turners and Forty-Eighters, aims to analyze the relationship between one of America’s greatest presidents and a group of revolutionary refugees. However, the book’s contribution to historiography is lim- ited due to structural problems, imprecise reasoning, terminological inconsistencies, and the lack of an exact explanation of what the author plans to accomplish. Baron draws on sources that, to my knowledge, have not been previ- ously examined. He was granted access to the archives of the New York Turner Society, and he located previously unknown copies of the Turn- Zeitung, the newspaper of the German-American Turner organization. He also consulted such German-American newspapers in Indiana as the Freie Presse von Indiana. Based on that material, Baron investigates the connection between Abraham Lincoln and the Forty-Eighters. Unfortunately, he frequently uses the term “German-Americans” interchangeably with “Forty- Eighters” and often treats German-Americans as if they were a single unified group. For instance, Baron argues that a “quiet alliance be- tween the German-Americans [emphasis added] and Abraham Lincoln existed” (3). On the same page however, he explains his aim to “re- construct the convergence of their common interests. “Converging” interests is not as concrete as some kind of “alliance” between Lincoln and either German-Americans or Forty-Eighters.

    x Frederick H. Hackeman CAMP 85 April 2018 A Message From the Commander While all Camp 85 Brothers are used to and at ease with the basic informality of the meet- ing structure, I feel that some structure aligning our camp with the decorum associated with the SUVCW meeting ritual will be beneficial. I am not recommending that the complete and full ritual be utilized but that there be a certain amount of it used. The approach that I will be initiating for the May meeting will be along these lines: • Open the meeting • Pledge to the Flag • Invocation • Reading/approval of past meeting minutes • Officer reports, if any War • Old Business • Nw Business • Benediction • Close the meeting. The Ritual as referenced in this newsletter will be used beginning with the Fall meeting schedule.

  • German Immigrants and Their Newspapers in the District of Columbia
    GERMAN IMMIGRANTS AND THEIR NEWSPAPERS IN THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA By KLAUS G. WUST The history of the German element in the District of Columbia has yet to be written. Local life in the national capital as a subject for historio- graphy has not provided the same attractions to professional and amateur historians as have the events in cities, areas or states which have grown naturally out of geographic and economic circumstances. Local events in Washington, though colorful at times, have always been overshadowed by the prominence of national affairs. The composition of its population has been largely determined by the functions and requirement of the many federal agencies. The District of Columbia as a political entity has under- gone great population shifts several times during its history, the most sig- nificant having taken place in the recent past. Furthermore, it would be virtually impossible to describe the history of any segment of the Washing- ton population without looking across the district line into the counties of Northern Virginia and Maryland where many of the people reside who are playing a part in its civic and social life. This is particularly true of the German element which has shown a marked tendency towards locating in the suburbs of the two neighboring states throughout the last 50 years. The Washington area has always had a sizeable foreign-born population, but immigration here was different from that found in other eastern cities. The absence of large industries and a commercial life limited to the require- ments of the capital and its immediate surroundings are the main reasons for this difference in the social pattern of immigrant life.
