Welcome to the Washtenaw County (MI) Emigration Project

Already in the early stage of my research I have received evidence that Washtenaw Co. and Ann Arbor had been another center of settlement of emigrants from my hometown area beside Williams and Crawford Co. in Ohio. So it's no very surprising that Tuebingen is the sister city of Ann Arbor.

So far only few of the potential emigrants like could be located but I'm positive to find some more and would appreciate your support.

So if you have a German heritage from the former Kingdom of Wuerttemberg and the names Bauer, Braun (Brown), Grauer, Hilber, Kern, Schettler (Shetler), Walz or Walker are part of your ancestor chart you may find them in the following listing. With either the RIN no. or the names of your grandfather or grandmother I will try to match your data with my database. In case of a match I will be happy to provide additional information about your German roots and family relationships.
