| Abstract | Information on immigrants who left the small German town of Tiefenort in the Grand Duchy of Saxony-Weimar-Eisenach to create new lives in the USA and Canada, including New Jersey, Ontario, Connecticut, Louisiana, Alaska, Illinois, Kentucky, New York, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. The author's goal is to find all of the descendants of the emigrants so that these "forgotten people" may be remembered. Historical photographs and written materials were collected from around the world and exhibited during the 875-year anniversary of Tiefenort in September 2012. This book documents and supplements that exhibition, providing additional statistics, photographs, passenger list extracts, census information, emigration documents, family letters, and family trees.
