Whilst this article may contain a lot of words and jargon that sound like they came straight out of Game of Thrones, bear with us as we explain the fascinating and little known story behind the territory of Ruthenia!

Where is Ruthenia?

The nationalities we would today refer to as Ukrainians, Belarusians, Slovaks or Polish naturally went under a different name back in the Medieval era. East Slavic people and their languages were referred to as Rusyn. Similarly, the medieval term of Ruthenia was used to refer to said Slavic people who lived in the former Kievan Rus, but in the medieval era became the grand duchy of Lithuania and later the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. This territory stretched from modern day Poland to the edges of Romania, incorporating the Carpathian mountains, Ukraine and Slovakia.

Back then, as well as nationality, the term Rusyn also referred to the official Belarusian based language of the era. Today the name Rusyn refers to the spoken language and variants of a literary language codified in the 20th century for Carpatho-Rusyns living in the Transcarpathian region of Ukraine, Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, and the autonomous province of Vojvodina in Serbia.

History of Ruthenia

Towards the end of the 18th Century, Ruthenia was split between the Russian Empire (present-day Belarus and much of Ukraine) and Austria-Hungarian. Russia gained control of modern Belarus and the majority of Ukraine whilst the Austro-Hungarians gained control of regions in Ukraine, Poland, and Slovakia. In the 19th Century, Russia began to stop using the word Ruthenia and called the region White Russia (which translates to Belarus in Russian language). The Austro-Hungarians however still continued to use the term to refer to the Slavic people living in the Austro-Hungarian provinces of Galicia, Bukovina and some areas of Hungary. The term even reached America and Canada as mass immigration to North America prior to 1914 led to American and Canadian censuses using the term to describe the new arrivals.

After WW1 and the Russian Revolution, Rusyn lands were split between the USSR, Romania, Czechoslovakia and Romania. It was only in Czechoslovakia that Rusyns were still referred to as such as the term was designated to the Carpatho-Rusyns who lived in the far east of Czechoslovakia. Interestingly, during the Paris Peace Conference, Subcarpathian Rus was given autonomous status within the international treaties and the Czechoslovakian constitution. Rusyn even became an official language of the province alongside the mother language of Czech. Unfortunately, the autonomy of the province was short lived as the rise of Nazi Germany and the annexation of Czechoslovakia forced the country to cede to the Nazis and their ally of Hungary.

After the apocalyptic retreat of the Nazis through the region in 1944, the Hungarians were ousted from the region and replaced by Soviet rule. Under orders of Stalin, Ruthenia became the Transcarpathian oblast of the Ukrainian SSR. The names of Rusyn and Carpatho-Rusyn were banned across all territories of the USSR, and the language was declared Ukrainian.

During the Soviet Rule in central and eastern Europe between 1945 to 1989, the term Rusyn only survived through the diaspora in North America and Yugoslavia where Rusyns, affectionately called Rusnaks in Yugoslavia, were declared an official Yugoslav nationality

Post-Communist Revival of Ruthenia

When communism in central and eastern Europe collapsed in 1989, Carpatho-Rusyn activists attempted a revival of their language and culture. Since then many countries with Rusyn populations have given Rusyns minority status, language status and state support. It's estimated that around a million Rusyns live in the ancestral homeland of Ruthenia today.

To explore the heritage of Ruthenia, check out our Soviet tours and contact us to arrange independent tours through the Rusyn territories of Slovakia, Poland, Hungary, Ukraine, Romania, Serbia, Croatia, and the Czech Republic!

https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/Carpathian_Ruthenia

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Carpathian Ruthenia is a small region in Central Europe, now mostly in western Ukraine, easternmost Slovakia, Poland and a few villages in Romania and Hungary.

Historically, this specific geographic area with defined ethno-linguistic boundaries in the northeast region of Austria-Hungary, encompassed part of Galicia and the old Hungarian counties of Saros, Zemplen, Szepes, Abauj, Ung, Ugocsa, Bereg and Maramaros. People from this Carpathian Mountains region were members of the Greek (Byzantine) Catholic Church (also called Uniate) and the Orthodox Church.

In ethnic diversity, it is inhabited by Ukrainian, Rusyn, Lemko, Hungarian, Slovak, Romanian, Bulgarian and Russian populations.

To read more about the Carpathian Ruthenia region see Wikipedia.

Lemkos are one of the ethnic groups inhabiting the Carpathian Mountains in what is now Southeastern Poland, formerly in the province of Galicia. Their language has been variously described as a Lemko language, a dialect of the Ukrainian language, a dialect of the Rusyn language and more recently sometimes described as a distinct dialect of the Slovak. In any case, the Lemko tongue and the Ukrainian language are akin but not always mutually intelligible. Rusyn (also referred to as the Ruthenian language) is similar to the Slovak language and Ukrainian language; Ukrainian scholars consider Rusyn a dialect of Ukrainian.

Hutsuls are an ethno-cultural group of Ukrainian highlanders who for centuries have inhabited the Carpathian mountains, mainly in Ukraine, the northern extremity of Romania (in the areas of Bukovina and Maramureş).

Ukrainian Hutsul culture bears a resemblance to neighboring cultures of western and southwestern Ukraine, particularly Lemkos and Boykos. These groups also share similarities with other Slavic highlander peoples, such as the Gorals in Poland and Slovakia. Similarities have also been noted with some Vlach cultures such as the Moravian Wallachians in the Czech Republic, as well as some cultures in Romania.

Most Hutsuls belong to the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church and the Ukrainian Orthodox Church. The Hutsul language is relatively unusual. It is considered to be a dialect of Ukrainian with some Polish influences.

Slavish Dialect?

In St. Louis, Missouri, around 1900 many of the Ruthenian immigrants spoke "Slavish". Was this a Ruthenian dialect spoken in eastern Europe, or is it a dialect which developed among the eastern European immigrants after they arrived in America. A Czech immigrant Roman Catholic priest in St. Louis was able to communicate with the Ruthenian Greek Catholic immigrants attending his parish using the Slavish dialect.

It appears that there is not anything specifically identified as the Slavish language or dialect, but Slavish is a phonetic equivalent to the German way of saying Slavic: Slawisch. Rusyn is a Slavic language, in the same East Slavic language group as Russian, Ukrainian, and Belorussian. These four language came from the Old East Slavic language. Perhaps they referred to it as Slavish (or Slawisch) in the similar way that we say that the people are Slavic.

Übersetzt von Germany Town Genealogies and Parish Register Inventories on the Internet

Wie die Wikipedia erklärt, ist ein Ortsfamilienbuch (früher als Ortssippenbuch bezeichnet) eine genealogische Sekundärquelle, in der die in einer Gemeinde oder einem Ort lebenden Personen geordnet nach ihren Kernfamilien verzeichnet sind. Die Familien sind verbunden durch die Erwähnung der jeweiligen Eltern der Eltern und der Ehepartner der Kinder.

Als Datenquellen dienen vor allem Kirchenbücher. Manchmal haben Pfarrer solche Ortsfamilienbücher erstellt. Man klann auch heute noch Ortfamilienbücher erstellen. Dabei sollte man den etablierten Regelsn folgen.

Handschriftliche Ortsfamilienbücher

Handschriftliche Ortsfamilienbücher wurden oftmals von Pfarrern erstellt. Sie sind bei den in der Pfarre noch vorhandenen Matrikelbüchern zu finden oder im zuständigen Diözesanarchiv. SOlche Bücher beschleunigen das Auffinden von Familien sehr. Es ist jedoch zu bedenken, dass sich Ortsfamilienbücher auf Kirchenbücher stützen und Abschreibefehler enthalten. Es ist zu empfehlen, die Daten mit den Kirchenbüchern abzugleichen. Außerdem enthalten Ortsfamilienbücher oftmals keine Sterbedaten.

Ortsfamilienbücher in gedruckter Form

Ahnenforscher haben oftmals Ortsfamilienbücher für Orte ihres besonderen Interesses erstellt und in gedruckter Form veröffentlicht. Vielfach haben die Forscher sie selbst veröffentlicht, weshalb sie nicht in Buchhandelskatalogen zu finden sind.

Ortsfamilienbücher im Internet

Es gibt zwei Kategorien von Online-Ressourcen:

(1.) Bibliographien von gedruckten und digitalen Städten Genealogien und Pfarrregisterindizes. Mehrere große Sammlungen, die geographisch gruppiert sind, sind unten aufgelistet.

(2.) Stadt-Genealogien und Pfarrregister-Indizes vollständig durchsuchbar online. Einige sind digitale Versionen von vorher gedruckten Büchern, aber die meisten wurden für das Internet erstellt.

Eine Online-Stadt Genealogie kann ein Werk im Gange sein, anstatt ein vollständige Datensatz aller lokalen Familien. Das Vorwort erklärt in der Regel den Stand jeder Zusammenstellung. Einige Bücher (d. H. Der OFB Schlesisch Drehnow) wurden geschaffen, um einen Sammelplatz für Informationen über Familien aus einem bestimmten Ort zu schaffen, wo nur wenige originale Quellen wie Pfarrregister überleben. In diesem Fall funktionieren sie eher wie eine Datenbank als ein traditionelles Stammbaumbuch. Benutzer können Informationen zu einem Buch hinzufügen oder Korrekturen durch Kontaktaufnahme mit dem Buchadministrator oder Webmaster.
Das Internet hat es ermöglicht, Online-Datenbanken zu veröffentlichen, die als OFBs funktionieren. Sie sind meist nach Name und Ort durchsuchbar. Manche decken mehrere Dörfer oder ein bestimmtes geographisches Gebiet und nicht nur ein Dorf ab, mit der Absicht, alle weltweit vorhandenen genealogischen Informationen an einem Ort zu sammeln. Ein Beispiel ist die Memelland OFB.

Über 770 Online- Stadt Genealogie Aufzeichnungen sind derzeit unter Online Ortsfamilienbücher zugänglich. Sie folgen einem Standardformat. Bücher, die auf anderen Webseiten veröffentlicht werden, haben oft sehr unterschiedliche Formate, so dass der Leser jede einzelne Publikation studieren muss. Alle OrtsfamilienbüStadt Genealogien auf dieser Website sind durchsuchbar für Personen nach Nachnamen oder Ort.

Zug um Zug Benutzerhandbuch

Rufen Sie die Homepage Online Ortsfamilienbücher an

Wähle den Ort aus, entweder aus der alphabetischen Liste unter "Funktionen" auf der linken Seite oder von der Hauptseite. Die Ortschaften werden von Norden nach Süden aufgeführt, mit unterschiedlichen Abschnitten für deutsche Gemeinschaften in anderen Ländern wie Ungarn.

Die Hauptseite enthält geographische und historische Informationen, eine Liste der verwendeten Quellen und eine Symbolleiste mit drei Suchoptionen:

1. Gesamtliste der Familiennamen

2. Geburtsorte auswaertiger Personen

3. Sterbeorte weggezogener Personen

Klicken Sie auf einen Nachnamen. Eine Liste von Personen mit Geburtsdaten (falls bekannt) kommt auf.

Klicken Sie auf eine Person von Interesse. Das bringt die Einzelseite oder Familienseite auf.

Einige Einträge können Querverweise auf andere Online-OFBs mit einer roten Notation "Es gibt (eine) ähnliche Person (en) im OFB (Stadtname)." Dies bedeutet, dass eine ähnliche Person in einer anderen Online-Stadt Genealogie auf dem Server aufgelistet ist. Dies könnte die gleiche Person sein, die in einem anderen Ort gelebt hatte, oder jemand anderes mit einem ähnlichen Namen und Alter.

Eine Familienseite kann Ehegatten, Eltern, Kinder, andere Ehegatten und zusätzliche Informationen enthalten.

FamilySearch Guide to finding your ancestor's town of origin

# data[].attributes.body
https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/Germany_Finding_Town_of_Origin

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
In order to research your family in Germany, it is essential that you have identified the place where they came from. It is not enough to know only 'Germany' or 'Prussia,' as these were quite large entities. You must know the city, town, or parish that they came from. In many cases, it will be difficult to identify the place of origin by going directly to German sources. Therefore, you will need to search in American sources first.

It is essential that you know:

1. The given and surname of your ancestor: for example, Henry M Borgmann.

2. The exact place name, for example: Stadt Osnabrück, Kreis Osnabrück, Hannover, Prussia (now Niedersachsen).

3. The time frame.

4. The religion of your ancestor: usually Catholic or Evangelical Lutheran.

Before you can embark in meaningful research, you need to be clear about the name of your ancestor. Many names have been Americanized or have been recorded according to sound. For example, a name with a written "V" in German, would sound like an "F" to an American clerk writing it down. Following the paper trail of your ancestor may give you clues. Search ship lists, naturalization records, church records, civil records or any record where your ancestor had to sign his name.

Another very important piece of evidence to find is the correct town of origin of an ancestor. Again, a given place name may be spelled according the recorder's understanding. It is not enough information to just know that your ancestor came from Germany or Prussia. Even to know the German state, such as Hessen, sometimes proves futile, because there are old states called Hessen, Hessen-Nassau, Hessen-Darmstadt, Hessen-Kassel etc.

Germany has many "cultural regions" and "geographical landscapes", smaller, informal areas that were not political entities. You might be familiar with the Black Forest, the Ruhr, the Saar, or Frisia (Friesland). Your ancestors might have left records or family traditions that they were from one of these areas. This list of (German) "landscapes" by GenWiki can help you identify these regions. Once you know that the information is a cultural region not a town, you will know that you need to search further to narrow down your ancestors' town.

It is also most helpful to know the time frame when you search for a German ancestor. Germany was never a united state until 1871. Before that it consisted of dozens of little states. All successful research is based on knowing the availability of records for a given time period.

If you know the religious affiliation of your ancestor you may also get faster results in locating your ancestor. Most Germans were Catholics or Protestants, however, in some areas, the records of people of other faiths were kept by the predominant church. For example, Jewish or Mennonite births were occasionally recorded at Catholic parishes, especially in areas where the Church was used as the civil registration office.

Thoroughly go over all home sources available to you, including family history papers, copies of records, pictures, old letters (i.e. with an old address), family bibles, journals/diaries, copies of vital record certificates and church records, memorabilia etc. Interview extended family and close relatives as well as former neighbors--all of which may prove very helpful in gathering as much knowledge about an ancestor as possible.

Find the oldest living relatives that you can and ask them:

1. What do you know about our first ancestor to come from Germany? (open-ended)

2. Have you ever heard mention of towns in Germany where the family lived?

3. Do you have contact with any relatives in Germany?

4. . Do you have contact with other branches of the family in the U.S.?

5. . When _____________ came from Germany, did he travel with other family members?

6. . Do you know when _________________ arrived and which port city?

7. Did _______________ever become a citizen?

8. Did_________________fight in World War I or II?

9. When they first came, were there already family members here who they joined?

10. Did_______________ever mention their parents in Germany?

11. Were they Catholic or Lutheran?

12. Do you have any old letters or postcards from Germany family?

13. Do you have any pictures of family members in Germany?

Search19th Century Census Records, available for the United States, Canada, England, and other countries. Censuses are often taken every ten years.

Try to locate your ancestor in every census during which he or she was alive. This information provides a good framework for further research.

The 1850-1880 U.S. federal censuses sometimes list a German state or province as birth place.

The censuses for 1900 to 1930 ask for the year of immigration and whether or not the person was naturalized. This information can help you find naturalization records or a passenger list.

United States Census Online Genealogy Records will give you links to every census. The FamilySearch links lead to a free search, but the search engine is not as reliable. The other links are for subscription websites, but they can be searched free-of-charge at any Family History Center.

State census records vary in availability and the type of information they contain, but they are always useful as another source to document an ancestor in a specific locality. See United States Online Genealogy Records by State for links to online state censuses.

Understand that any birth, marriage, or death certificate gives information about other people besides the primary person it is about

1. It is important to remember that a birth certificate for a child might tell its parents' birthplaces.

2. Marriage certificates might name birth dates and places of the bride and groom. They might also give the names and birth places of the parents of the bride and groom.

3. Death certificates are very important. Birth and marriage certificates might not have kept by a state during the earlier years of your ancestor's life. There is a greater chance that your ancestor died after detailed record-keeping began. Death certificates frequently state birth date and place. They also state the names of parents and their birth places.

There are wiki articles giving details on how to find vital records in each state. You can select the state of interest and the record (birth, marriage, or death) from this list: How-To Articles.

Many records may be online. See United States Online Genealogy Records by State for online vital record databases.

Websites such as FindAGrave and Billion Graves are making it easier to get information from headstones, which frequently give birth dates, and occasionally give birth places. Each state has additional collections of cemetery records. See United States Online Genealogy Records by State for links to other online cemetery records.

Modern obituaries usually list birth date and place and parents' names. See United States Online Genealogy Records by State and select your state for links to online obituary collections.

The application for the Social Security card may also contain a town of birth. These records are available for deceased individuals who died after 1935 when Social Security began.

The Social Security Applications and Claims Index does not cover every application--it has sort of an eclectic mix of what got included. If you find your ancestor in the Social Security Death Index but not in the Social Security Applications and Claims Index, you can send away for a copy of the application.

Passenger lists, especially in the 20th century, may list birth place, last residence in mother country, and name and residence of a close relative in the mother country. United States Immigration Online Genealogy Records is a comprehensive list of passenger arrival databases that you can search right now from your computer. There are many, many databases. The following search strategy will make your search more efficient.

1. Check the partner website indexes, as these cover many, many databases at once. The FamilySearch Historical Records databases is free to search with a free registered account. The other websites are subscription-based but can be searched for free at a Family History Center near you. Try to search each partner site because their search engines can often bring up slightly different results.

2. If it is difficult for you to get access to the subscription databases, next try Additional Nationwide Collections Not Included in Partner Sites. These websites have a lot of overlap with the subscription websites.

3. Search a nationality, religious, or political group collection that applies to your ancestor.

4. Search the state collection for the first state where your ancestor lived.

5. Read Tracing Immigrant Origins to learn about many other records that substitute for immigration records.

German emigrants usually left in groups from the same area of Germany. After finding your ancestor on a port record or passenger register, write down all the people on the same list.
Check local census and other records to determine which people settled in the same area as your ancestor.
Check for place of origin information on those who were on the same list.
If your ancestor's surname is not unusual, but some of the others on the same list are, look those names up in the German surname books to determine where they originated.

Naturalization records may also list an ancestor's birth place.

Prior to 1906 any U.S. court could naturalize foreigners. Many pre-1900 records only list "Germany" as the country of citizenship; however, there are notable exceptions, so these records should be checked routinely.

The process involved two sets of papers: a declaration of intention to become a U.S. citizen, and a petition filed some time later.

Beginning in 1906, naturalization records became more detailed, as the responsibility shifted to the Federal government.

More information about naturalization records, along with helpful links, is found at Beginning Research in United States Naturalization Records and United States Naturalization and Citizenship Online Genealogy Records.

So far this article has covered records that can be found in the country of arrival. There are also records originating in Germany that should be consulted.

Hamburg, one of three major ports of departure for Germans, has lists which give, name, age, birth place or residence. and the last foreign residence of people leaving from Hamburg.

There are two lists:

The Direct Passenger List (1850 to 1934) lists those who left Hamburg and went directly to their destination.

The Indirect Passenger List (1850 to 1910) shows those who left Hamburg, went to another port, and then on to their destination. After 1910 the indirect list is included with the Direct Passenger List:

Unfortunately, the passenger departure lists for the port of Bremen were destroyed. This online list is very small. The lists for 1847 to 1871 have been partially reconstructed.

An early commercial partner with Bremen was the port at Baltimore, Maryland. Many Germans going to America through Bremen landed in Baltimore. The Baltimore passenger arrival lists can be used to compensate partially for the loss of the Bremen departure lists:

Microfilmed Records at the Family History Library, Salt Lake City

These records are available only by searching microfilms at the Family History Library, Salt Lake City. There is a project to digitize them, so check back occasionally to see if they have become available.

Each state or city had its own laws regarding passports. In many cases, the applications for passports and the supporting documentation have been preserved. These records often give Germans had to apply for permission to emigrate from most areas. The Family History Library has these application records for several states and cities, including '''Baden, Rheinland, the Pfalz, and Zwickau.'''

The Hamburg Passport Applications have been microfilmed for the years 1851 to 1929 and include indexes. Residents of Hamburg had to apply for a passport to emigrate. A few emigrants from other parts of Germany stopped in Hamburg long enough to become residents. If they were residents, they might be in the passport records.

Index to Wuerttemberg passport applications : Stuttgart passport office 1845-1920 They list the emigrant's birthplace, residence, assets, and indebtedness.

For Bayern there is a periodical entitled Blätter des Bayrischen Landesvereines für Familienkunde. The call number is 943.3 B2b. The volumes which deal with emigration are V. 1, page 19 and 48, V. 2, page 103, V. 3, pages 9, 39, 73, 87, 102 V. 6-7, V. 9 pages 157, 417.

These collections are somewhat random in what they include. Be cautious in assuming that a individual with the same name is your ancestor. Back up the connection with additional evidence, such as a matching birth date, matching parents or other relatives, and evidence that the person located in the index did not remain in Germany.

Google the ancestor. An unknown relative may have begun researching the family and posted their findings in one of the many surname forums or chat rooms.

Check the local libraries in the areas where your German immigrant ancestor lived. The reference librarian can direct you to local sources or local record keepers. Ask where local newspapers and periodicals are archived and search them for such events as wedding announcements, obituaries, or other important life events.

County and town histories where your German immigrant settled often contain biographical information. Local histories sometimes provide a place of origin. City histories give the origin of prominent citizens, and county histories show where German settlers came from. Biographical information of descendants may contain specific places of origin beyond the non-descript "Germany" or "Prussian" words found in other records.

The German-American Newspapers and Periodicals 1732-1955 is a listing of German language newspapers throughout America.

There are many books written about Germans settling in various states.

Surname distribution tools for Germany, are based on recent data presented on a 3-D map. This can be helpful only if you had an extremely unusual surname.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
In order to research your family in Germany, it is essential that you have identified the place where they came from. It is not enough to know only 'Germany' or 'Prussia,' as these were quite large entities. You must know the city, town, or parish that they came from.

Guide to Bavaria (Bayern), German Empire ancestry, family history, and genealogy before 1945: birth records, marriage records, death records, both church and civil registration, compiled family history, and finding aids.

The Kingdom of Bavaria (German: Königreich Bayern) was a German state that succeeded the former Electorate of Bavaria in 1805 and continued to exist until 1918.

Most of Bavaria's present-day borders were established after 1814 with the Treaty of Paris, in which Bavaria ceded Tyrol and Vorarlberg to the Austrian Empire while receiving Aschaffenburg and Würzburg.

With the unification of Germany into the German Empire in 1871, the kingdom became a federal state of the new Empire and was second in size, power, and wealth only to the leading state, the Kingdom of Prussia.

In 1918, Bavaria became a republic, and the kingdom was thus succeeded by the current Free State of Bavaria, after the abolition of monarchy in the aftermath of World War I.

Bavarians foster different cultural identities:

Franconia in the north, speaking East Franconian German;

Bavarian Swabia in the south west, speaking Swabian German; and

Altbayern (so-called "Old Bavaria"), the regions forming the "historic" Bavaria, at present the districts of the Upper Palatinate, Lower and Upper Bavaria, speaking Austro-Bavarian.

Moreover, by the expulsion of German speakers from Eastern Europe, Bavaria has received a large population that was not traditionally Bavarian. In particular, the Sudeten Germans, expelled from neighboring Czechoslovakia, have been deemed to have become the "fourth tribe" of Bavarians.

Following the end of World War II, Bavaria was occupied for a while by US forces, who reestablished the state on 19 September 1945, and during the Cold War it was part of West Germany.

The Rhenish Palatinate was detached from Bavaria in 1946 and made part of the new state Rhineland-Palatinate. Wikipedia

Finding Birth, Marriage, and Death Records for Bavaria (Bayern)

Most of the information you need to identify you ancestors and their families will be found in two major record groups: civil registration and church records. To locate these records, follow the instructions in these Wiki articles.

Records were kept on the local level. You must know the town where your ancestor lived. If your ancestor was a United States Immigrant, use the information in the Wiki article Germany Finding Town of Origin to find evidence of the name of the town where your ancestors lived in Germany.

Find the name of the civil registration office (Standesamt) that serves your ancestor's locality. Use the Wiki article Finding Aids For German Records for step-by-step instructions.

You can also consult Bavaria (Bayern) Parish Register Inventories to learn the Lutheran or Catholic parish that would have kept records for your town.

Germany was first unified as a nation in 1871. An important gazetteer,Meyers Orts- und Verkehrs-lexikon des deutschen Reichs, "Meyer's Gazetter" for short, details the place names of villages, towns, counties (kreise), and higher jurisdictions used at that time. In the Research Wiki, FamilySearch Catalog, and FamilySearch Historical Records, the records of Germany are organized using those place names.
