AbstractThis paper concerns the 19th-century immigrants from Germany who settled both in an area north of White Oak Bayou and near its confluence with Little White Oak Bayou and in a separate area known as Germantown. Both communities were once located beyond Houston's city limits, but today both areas are located within the City of Houston. Family names mentioned include: Grota, Depenbrock, Stude, Klunkert, Windt/Wendt, Wickeman/Wichman/Wickman, Koenig, Weber, and Eckert.
