The Dotterer Family (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Dotterer Family

This work covers a field never before entered by the genealogist. Although it represents a vast expenditure of labor, patience and money, it is imperfect in a great degree. Its defects are not altogether chargeable to the compiler, but rather to the destruction of German records by English-speaking descendants, to lack of interest in the subject of family history, and to misconception of the scope and dignity of the under taking.

The information embraced in these pages has been obtained from many sources - from official records, church registers, grave-stones, family Bibles, and personal interviews. To the many correspondents who have collected and forwarded details, sincere thanks is tendered. In a number of instances credit is given in the body of the work. It would be a pleasure to make acknowledgment in every case, but that is impracticable.
