Book Description
Many persons believe that birth records in Texas were not kept until 1903. However, the Texas Constitution Convention of 1869 called for the registration of births, deaths, marriages in every organized county and such was set up by legislative action in 1873 and repeled in 1876. A few counties continued to keep birth records of which the number was 43 counties. Of these, 25 counties had their original books. Often when registering a child born during the years 1873-1878, the parents would list all of their previous children, hence there are many quite early dates, as early as 1838. Counties for which birth records are found in this volume are: Anderson, Austin, Bandera, Bastrop, Bell, Bexar, Brazos, Burnett, Caldwell, Cameron, Cass, Cherokee, Colorado, Comal, Comanche, Dallas, DeWitt, Fannin, Fayette, Gillispie, Gregg, Grimes, Hays, Kaufman, Kendall, Lamar, Lavaca, Lee, Marion, Medina, Menard, Nacogdoches, Navarro, Nueces, Rusk, San Saba, Somerville, Travis, Upshur, Victoria, Washington, and Webb.

Germans and Texans
Author: Walter Struve
Publisher: University of Texas Press
ISBN: 0292785747
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 417
Book Description
During the brief history of the Republic of Texas (1836-1845), over 10,000 Germans emigrated to Texas. Perhaps best remembered today are the farmers who settled the Texas Hill Country, yet many of the German immigrants were merchants and businesspeople who helped make Galveston a thriving international port and Houston an early Texas business center. This book tells their story. Drawing on extensive research on both sides of the Atlantic, Walter Struve explores the conditions that led nineteenth-century Europeans to establish themselves on the North American frontier. In particular, he traces the similarity in social, economic, and cultural conditions in Germany and the Republic of Texas and shows how these similarities encouraged German emigration and allowed some immigrants to prosper in their new home. Particularly interesting is the translation of a collection of letters from Charles Giesecke to his brother in Germany which provide insight into the business and familial concerns of a German merchant and farmer. This wealth of information illuminates previously neglected aspects of intercontinental migration in the nineteenth century. The book will be important reading for a wide public and scholarly audience.
