Next meeting of the
Southwest Florida Germanic Genealogy Society
is Saturday, May 1, 2010
in Room A-B at the Mid-County Regional Library
2050 Forrest Nelson Blvd, Port Charlotte.

Our program will include watching Program 3:  "Little Germanies", from the four-part television series, "Germans in America". 

Over 60 million Americans have their origins in German-speaking countries.  The Germans in America series tells the story of our German ancestors immigrating to the United States.  This program follows two families who represent both ends of the economic spectrum, the Steinweg family, who founded Steinway & Sons, and the Gumpertz family, who struggled to find a way out of the slums of New York's Little Germany.
