Book Description
The booklet opens with the Delaware Indians prior to 1818. White Americans quickly replaced the natives. Germanic people arrived during the mid-nineteenth century. African American indentured servants and free blacks migrated to Indianapolis. After the Civil War, southern blacks poured into the city. Fleeing war and political unrest, thousands of eastern and southern Europeans came to Indianapolis. Anti-immigration laws slowed immigration until World War II. Afterward, the city welcomed students and professionals from Asia and the Middle East and refugees from war-torn countries such as Vietnam and poor countries such as Mexico. Today, immigrants make Indianapolis more diverse and culturally rich than ever before.

Book Description
"From the harmonies of one of the nation's oldest continuously active singing organizations, to the presence of gymnasiums in public schools to the Soldiers' and Sailors' Monument at the heart of the city, people of German descent have been responsible for countless contributions to Indianapolis culture. Using items from the Ruth Lilly Special Collections and Archives, this pilot digital exhibit demonstrates the influence German-Americans have had on music, architecture, and physical education in Indianapolis. It also discusses the cultural conflict faced by German-Americans and what they did to overcome it"--Shaping the Circle homepage.

German Settlers of South Bend
Author: Gabrielle Robinson
Publisher: Arcadia Publishing
ISBN: 9780738523408
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 134
Book Description
The story of the first German immigrants to northern Indiana is the story of the beginnings of South Bend. The predominant immigrant group from the 1840s to the 1870s, the Germans helped build South Bend from an isolated trading post into a thriving industrial city. They also played a key role in transforming the surrounding wilderness into rich and fertile farmland. Using first-hand personal accounts and public documents, German Settlers of South Bend illustrates the lives of these pioneer immigrants and their growing city. The material has been collected from a large number of sources on both sides of the Atlantic, including more than 200 German letters from the 1840s to the 1870s that provide glimpses into the day-to-day lives of these early settlers and their families back in Germany. Descendants of immigrants from all over the United States and Germany have come forward with genealogies, stories, and pictures, providing a far-reaching portrait of the times.
