Der Blumenbaum

Der Blumenbaum offers SGGS members useful facts about German research, resource ideas, how-to instructions, down-to-earth tips, surname indexes, free queries, research techniques, translator lists, mentor contacts, German cultural background pieces and vignettes, many old German engravings and prints as appropriate, archive tips and information, historical facts relative to German family history research.

We frequently hear from our member-subscribers who tell us they learn something useful from every issue and that they read each issue from cover to cover as soon as it arrives. SGGS members receive four issues of the journal per membership year. The year runs from July 1 through June 30. Issues for the membership year do not go on sale to non-members until July of the next membership year.

In case you are wondering, "Blumenbaum" is a made-up word. It was made from two German words - Blumen (flowers) and Baum (tree). Der is the appropriate article (the) for the masculine noun Baum.
