Geschwindner's to America


This list represents an extraction from "Germans to America - Lists of Passengers Arriving at U.S. Ports," edited by Ira A. Glazier and P. William Filby, 56 Vols. (January 1850 - November 1888). The main intention was to extract information about passengers with the name GESCHWINDNER; however, with the knowledge that spellings and transcriptions may have lead to errors at many stages in the immigration, other names that appear similar or related have also been recorded. Anyone with additional or related information is encouraged to contact me at lfg@psu.edu .


In Vols. 23 - 32: no reference to Geschwindner or similar names were found. From Vols. 29 - 56, names starting with GSCH were checked also. No names of interest were found in Vols. 55 & 56. The term (no n) refers to the fact that there is no n after the d in the name as given in the source volume. The data after the name is <age, sex, occupation, origin province, village, destination>.
