  • Pennsylvania Germans Move to Kansas
    PENNSYLVANIA GERMANS MOVE TO KANSAS By GEORGE R. BEYER* rHE distinctive role wxhich the Pennsylvania Gertmans have TjIaved within the Keystone State since their arrival in thli late seve nteenith and eighteenth centuries is well known. As a group. of course, these people have never forsaken their original Amer- ican homeland, and vet individuals among them were longl conspic- llonlS in the movement of settlers to other parts of the countrys . This migration out of Pennsylvania began well before the Amer- ican Revolution, with Germans moving into Maryland as early as 1729 and into Virginia and the Carolinas in succeeding decades. Before the end of the eighteenth century, scattered settlements were planted in other parts of the East. As the years passed, Pennsylvania Germans also contrihuted notably to the peopling of the Middle and Far W\est. Considerable numbers of themil made their way into northern Ohio following the Revolutionary WVar, w ith some continuing on into Indiana. These states as well as Illinois received particularly large numbers of Pennsyl vania Ge"- uanl immigrants Luring the early part of the nineteenth century as did Iowa and Kansas in the several decades prior to 1890. Two other states, Oklahoma and California, attracted later settlers.' Although the immigration of Pennsylvania Germans did not occur as early in Kansas as it did in some states to the east, the story of the Kansas immigration is all extremely interesting one. MAIr. Beyer is an Assistant Archivist at the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission's Division of Public Records. This article is based on a master's thesis completed by the author at Cornell University in 1961, as well as on additional research conducted subsequently.

Johns Hopkins University Press, 2017. Project MUSE., <a href=" https://muse.jhu.edu/. For additional information about this book https://muse.jhu.edu/book/49568 Access provided at 3 Jan 2020 23:09 GMT from University of Wisconsin @ Madison UPart 2 Culture and Society This page intentionally left blank U4 The Pennsylvania German Language mark l. louden The story of the Pennsylvania German language is an unusual one across the sociolinguistic landscape of North America. Worldwide, languages spo- ken today by minority populations are in a critical situation, with most in serious danger of becoming extinct. Indeed, of the approximately 7,000 lan- guages spoken across the globe, at least half are predicted to lose their native speakers by the turn of the century. Yet Pennsylvania German, spoken by a minuscule 0.08 percent of the U.S. population, is exceptional. Despite the fact that it is an oral vernacular language lacking in any offi cial recognition or support, it thrives today in the United States of America, the heartland of the world’s dominant engine of economic and cultural globalization, whose majority language, English, has become the international lingua franca. And although the linguistic roots of Pennsylvania German lie in central Europe, its speakers have always viewed themselves every bit as American as their English- monolingual neighbors. Pennsylvania Dutch or Pennsylvania German? Language or Dialect? Pennsylvania German (PG) is a North American language that developed during the eighteenth century in colonial Pennsylvania as the result of the immigration of several thousand speakers from mainly southwestern German- speaking Europe, especially the linguistic and cultural area known as the Palatinate (German Pfalz).

  • Old North Milwaukee
    Approximate boundaries: N-W. Silver Spring Dr; S-W. Capitol Dr; E-N. Teutonia Ave; W-N. Sherman Blvd NORTHWEST SIDEOld North Milwaukee NEIGHBORHOOD DESCRIPTION Old North Milwaukee, with a population of over 11,000 residents, covers a large area from Silver Spring Drive on the north to Capitol Drive on the southern border. The neighborhood has a mix of housing styles. The most common is the early 20th century bungalow found mostly in the northern part of the neighborhood. Closer to Capitol Drive are one-story brick houses typical of those built in the mid-20th century. In the center of Old North Milwaukee is an industrial corridor that extends roughly from 31st to 35th Streets. The neighborhood has considerable green space along parts of Lincoln Creek. See photos below. HISTORY Todays neighborhood- Old firehouse and Nearly 50 neighborhoods on Milwaukee’s northwest side village hall building once comprised the unincorporated Town of Granville in Milwaukee County, which extended from Hampton Avenue on the south to County Line Road on the north, and 27th Street on the east to 124th Street on the west. Much of the Old North Milwaukee neighborhood was once part of this expanse. While Granville encompassed many hamlets, only North Milwaukee ever incorporated. But this was not until 1897. Before this, the Town of Granville had its own history. Early populations According to the Milwaukee Sentinel (March 22, 1877) there were originally three small settle- ments in Granville. The first, in 1835, was the family of Jacob Brazelton which included 11 sons. The second was duo Daniel R.

  • Franklin and the Pennsylvania Germans John B
    Franklin and the Pennsylvania Germans John B. Frantz The Pennsylvania State University INTRODUCTION Although the Germans began to arrive in Pennsylvania forty years before Benjamin Franklin left Boston for Philadelphia in 1723, both began to attract attention in that decade. Franklin gained fame as an innovative writer and expert printer, which made him wealthy enough to withdraw from business by the late 1740s.' The Pennsylvania Germans became obvious because of the non-Britishness of the multitudes of them who were leaving behind the wars of Europe for William Penn's comparatively peaceful "Holy Experiment." By the middle decades of the century, estimates placed their numbers between 60,000 and 100,000, constituting one-third to three-fifths of the colony's nearly 200,000 to 300,000 inhabitants.2 Most of the early arrivals belonged to the pacifistic religious groups. Almost all of the later ones were Lutheran and Reformed, with a few Roman Catholics, who had no qualms about fighting "a just war," though almost all initially supported the peace-loving English Quakers politically.' Franklin's Early Contacts with the Pennsylvania Germans Benjamin Franklin and the Pennsylvania Germans early came in contact with each other. Franklin heard and conversed with the German Seventh Day Baptist evangelist Michael Welfare when he preached in Philadelphia in 1734. After Franklin began his own printing establishment, he published material for German settlers. As early as 1731, he printed in German two books for the German Baptists.4 He printed in pamphlet form a letter from Pennsylvania's negotiator with the Indians Conrad Weiser to the German-language publisher Christopher Sauer.5 In 1740, he brought out a German translation of Gilbert Tennent's sermon "The Danger of an Unconverted Ministry." Between 1742 and 1744, he published in German a Moravian catechism and the Authentische Relation (Authentic Relation) of the Moravians' conferences of 1742 at which they tried to unite Pennsylvania's numerous religious groups.

  • The German Heritage of Kansas: an Introduction William D
    The German Heritage of Kansas: An Introduction William D. Keel University of Kansas As one travels throughout the state of Kansas, one cannot help noticing numerous place names which might lead one to believe that one is, indeed, not in Kansas anymore: Humboldt in Allen County, Bremen in Marshall County, Stuttgart in Phillips County, Marienthal in Wichita County, Windthorst in Ford County, Olmitz in Barton County, Olpe in Lyons County, Bern in Nemaha County, and many others. Whether named for famous German researchers (Alexander and Wilhelm von Humboldt), German political leaders of the nineteenth century (Ludwig Windthorst), cities and towns in Germany (Bremen, Stuttgart and Olpe), the capital of Switzerland (Bern), a city in the Austrian Empire (Olmütz), or a German colony in the Russian Empire (Marienthal), each of these Kansas communities is a living testament to the massive influx of German-speaking settlers who found new homes in Kansas during the period from the mid-1850s to the 1880s. These place names also reflect the diverse background of those German-speaking settlers: They came to Kansas from throughout the German-speaking area of Central Europe, including Switzerland, Austria, Luxembourg, Alsace, Lorraine, Bohemia, Moravia, Hungary, Galicia, and Bucovina as well as from the states and regions (Bavaria, Prussia, Württemberg, Westphalia, Hannover, Saxony, the Rhineland, etc.) normally associated with Germany itself. Significantly for Kansas, they also came from German colonies in the vast Russian Empire: from those established in the 1760s along the Volga River and from those established beginning in 1789 by Mennonites near the Black Sea. But many settlers of German ancestry did not come to Kansas directly from their European homelands.
