German Genealogical Research in South Africa

German Genealogical Research in South Africa:

This page is to help you in doing specifically German genealogical research in South Africa. Obviously the general directions are the same as for all other South Africans, but there are a few extra sources, which are to be discussed here. To start you off have a look at these pages:

  • Germans in South Africa 
  • A list of early German immigrants to the Cape 1652-1806 
  • A list of German surnames in South Africa 
  • A list of Berlin Missionaries in South Africa 
  • A list of Hermannsburg Missionaries in South Africa 
  • A list of Moravian Missionaries in South Africa 
  • Ship's passenger lists Hamburg-South Africa 
  • Surname interest list for families of German origin in South Africa 
  • Individual Immigrants of the 19th Century 
  • An address book of Germans in Cape Town in 1886 
  • Genealogy in the old German colonies in Africa 

(You can search all these lists from the Home page.)
