Research Trip #4: Germany

My research trip to Germany would focus on western Germany. Baden [Karlsruhe], North Rhein-Westfalen, Mulheim an Ruhr [Broich] and Lower Saxony [Oldenburg].

The stop at Karlsruhe would allow me to research my Laubsher ancestry. Sites? Touring the city and locating the Laubscher homestead would cover that end of it.

Westfalen and Broich were home to Wilhelm Rittenhouse. Researching the family and visiting the old cities along the Rhine would occupy my time there.

Oldenburg in Lower Saxony was home to the progenitor of my Garrison line. After researching the local records, wandering the town would cover the relaxation. Oldenburg even has an Irish Pub!
