I was always told by my mother that my great great grandfather was from Alsace-Lorraine. But, I just printed the 1920 US Census and his son states that "his father was born in Belgian-occupied Germany". I don't know in which area but I would like to find out if there is a central archive where documents could be checked and ordered. The Netherlands has a great, free website genlias.nl

Thank you,

I am not aware of any central database. I have done all my research using records from specifically Eupen. There are a number of towns (mostly smaller) in the East belgium (german speaking) area. If you can post more specifically, I may be able to look it up when I get access to the records at the FHC again.

I am a descendant of a Daniel and Emma Schaaf of Geiselberg, Bavaria. Are you familiar with that area? Thanks, Kathy
