AbstractThe first immigration of Germans to Wisconsin in large numbers was that of the so-called Old Lutherans of Pomerania and Brandenburg, who came between 1839 and 1845, as a result of the attempt by King Frederick William IV, of Prussia, to unite the Lutheran and Reformed faiths. The author's purpose is to sketch the history of that movement with the emigration that followed and the forming of several German settlements in this state
