[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Ancestry.com and German material

[Dave Obee]

Ancestry.com has added a variety of German sources, including some that
might be of interest to Volhynia researchers.

As an example, there is a dabatase of 19th-Century Emigration from Kreis
Simmern (Hunsrueck), Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany to Brazil, England, Russian
Poland, and USA. There is also the Mecklenburg-Schwerin census of 1867. And
so on. Not a huge number of files, but it's a start.

For the list, go to www.Ancestry.com, click on the what's new link, then the
recently added databases link. We are getting closer to the launch of
Ancestry.de, so maybe this material is a hint of what is to come.

Ancestry is of course a pay site, but anyone with an existing full
subscription is able to view the additional sites at no extra cost. And
besides, if you want 14 days for free, go to www.daveobee.com and click on
the Ancestry link at the bottom of the page.
