Two articles, written by Dr. Herbert Koch, have appeared in German genealogical publications regarding emigration from the Grandduchy of Sachsen-Weimar-Eisenach to America during the years 1854 and 1859. Since these articles have wide implications for German-American researchers, they have been combined into one list of emigrants in this monograph.
