Wuerttembergers from Le Havre, France are there any travel records available ?
« on: Tuesday 13 June 17 05:41 BST (UK) »
I've noticed that many Wuerttembergers left Europe from Le Havre, France on ships bound for the US. I'm curious about the usual overland routes from Wuerttemberg to Le Havre in the mid 19th century and if any records may still exist of such travel.

Hi Jim1,

Thanks very much for the link. You're right! I've searched it many times. Of general interest - I believe the Wuerttemberg Emigration Index is freely searchable even for non-members of Ancestry.com.

I assume that the overland routes were mostly stage coaches and trains at the time and I doubt that any records still exist but if so, they'd be great original-source material for genealogical research.
