Jacob Sternberger
Jacob Sternberger (german: Jakob Sternberger) was a grandson to Mayor of Kaaden Jakob Marzel Sternberger and an immigrant to the U.S.A. on whose correspondence is based one of the projects of the Max Kade Institute on German immigration in America. Jakob Sternberger came from a prominent family in Kaaden, Bohemia. He studied at the Charles University in Prague, where he was involved in the revolutionary movement spreading across the German states. Fleeing political persecution after 1848, Jakob emigrated to America in 1850, journeyed across the country, and eventually settled in Wisconsin. The Max Kade Institute has in its collection a cache of about two hundred letters of Jakob Sternberger's correspondence. The scores of letters in the Sternberger file indicate that several of Jakob's friends and family eventually joined him in his new home. For example, his brother Kajetan sent his 8-year-old son Ferdinand, who was born out of wedlock, to join Jakob on the farm. The Sternbe ...

People From Kadaň
A person ( : people) is a being that has certain capacities or attributes such as reason, morality, consciousness or self-consciousness, and being a part of a culturally established form of social relations such as kinship, ownership of property, or legal responsibility. The defining features of personhood and, consequently, what makes a person count as a person, differ widely among cultures and contexts. In addition to the question of personhood, of what makes a being count as a person to begin with, there are further questions about personal identity and self: both about what makes any particular person that particular person instead of another, and about what makes a person at one time the same person as they were or will be at another time despite any intervening changes. The plural form "people" is often used to refer to an entire nation or ethnic group (as in "a people"), and this was the original meaning of the word; it subsequently acquired its use as a plural form of ...

German-American Forty-Eighters
German Americans (german: Deutschamerikaner, ) are Americans who have full or partial German ancestry. With an estimated size of approximately 43 million in 2019, German Americans are the largest of the self-reported ancestry groups by the United States Census Bureau in its American Community Survey. German Americans account for about one third of the total population of people of German ancestry in the world. Very few of the German states had colonies in the new world. In the 1670s, the first significant groups of German immigrants arrived in the British colonies, settling primarily in Pennsylvania, New York and Virginia. The Mississippi Company of France moved thousands of Germans from Europe to Louisiana and to the German Coast, Orleans Territory between 1718 and 1750. Immigration ramped up sharply during the 19th century. There is a "German belt" that extends all the way across the United States, from eastern Pennsylvania to the Oregon coast.
