The greatest difficulty lies in the spellings of surnames which have evolved over time, some having simply been translated into French.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before going any further, I want to focus on the definition of the word German. A German is defined as a person living in the country called Germany. This country, as we know it and to which we refer today, has changed a lot over the past centuries. Its borders have shifted with wars and political treaties. As a Nation-State, Germany only exists since its proclamation on January 18, 1871. Before this date, there existed a Germanic world made up of several small States, Principalities, Duchies and even Free Cities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Its history is complex and must consider the geographical and political limits as well as the ethnogenesis of the German people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"410\" height=\"598\" src=\"https:\/\/www.genealogiequebec.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Allemagne-regions-e1658428698245.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3721\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.genealogiequebec.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Allemagne-regions-e1658428698245.jpg 410w, https:\/\/www.genealogiequebec.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Allemagne-regions-e1658428698245-206x300.jpg 206w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 410px) 100vw, 410px\" \/><figcaption>German regions<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, it is common to find in the parish registers of Quebec the words &#8220;German by nation&#8221;, even if the person came from Alsace or Lorraine, territories that have changed hands between Germany and France on numerous occasions. The majority of &#8220;German&#8221; ancestors who settled in Quebec came during the 17th and 18th centuries, before Germany as we know it today. The more we go back in time, the more we get lost in the ethnic subtleties which are ultimately only labels. The great invasions into Europe in the first millennium created a mixture of Scandinavian, Saxon and Frankish origins across the continent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>New France was populated and developed by sustained French immigration until the Conquest of 1759. Following the conquest, other waves of immigration from Europe to Canada took place, this time including Europeans of various origins. If we want to talk about Germanic immigration, we must take into account these waves of immigration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It must first be understood that there are two types of immigration here: the first type, and probably the most important for Quebec, was military immigration. The various conflicts that opposed Germany and England and then England and its American colonies contributed to the greatest wave of immigration to Quebec. In most cases, these soldiers integrated so well into their new culture, including religion, that many Quebecers are unaware that they are of German descent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"813\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.genealogiequebec.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/riedesel_troupes_de_brunswick_1780-e1658428851236-813x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3722\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.genealogiequebec.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/riedesel_troupes_de_brunswick_1780-e1658428851236-813x1024.jpg 813w, https:\/\/www.genealogiequebec.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/riedesel_troupes_de_brunswick_1780-e1658428851236-238x300.jpg 238w, https:\/\/www.genealogiequebec.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/riedesel_troupes_de_brunswick_1780-e1658428851236-768x967.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.genealogiequebec.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/riedesel_troupes_de_brunswick_1780-e1658428851236.jpg 953w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><figcaption>Soldier from the troops of Brunswick<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The second type of immigration is more random and developed through wars, famines and political tensions that affected European countries between the 17th and 20th centuries. It is categorized by the fact that the emigrant left his native land of his own accord. These emigrants arrived mainly in the second half of the 19th century and formed more closed communities, sometimes even isolated, with their own churches and schools, and often retaining their Lutheran language and religion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first half of the 20th century, characterized by the two great wars, also contributed to Quebec society with the arrival of a new group of immigrants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the next article in this series, I will take a more in depth look at German immigration from the New France period until the Seven Years&#8217; War.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Claude Cr\u00e9gheur<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My name is Claude Cr\u00e9gheur and I have been interested in German history for several years.
