(Use your brower's "search" option to look for a specific town/area.) Since 1640/1647 the former Schaumburg territory (County of Schaumburg) consisted of two main parts: 1) the sovereign state of Grafschaft Schaumburg-Lippe, from 1807 through 1918 which was called Furstentum Sch.-Lippe; 2) the Hessian exclave of Grafschaft Schaumburg, which was reigned by Landgrafschaft Hessen-Kassel in 1807 and became known as Kurfurstentum Hessen (Kurhessen). Today the whole of Schaumburg is re-united (since 1977) under the name of Landkreis Schaumburg.

If you have come to my website via Ancestry: Several years ago the genealogy giant Ancestry absorbed the genealogy websites of Rootsweb along with personal databases posted at Rootsweb's WorldConnect Project that included a large database of my own family information. I started using Rootsweb in 2000 and they gave us the capability to add, remove, and update our information at anytime and I used these options frequently to post correct and current data. Presently (2006) I am told by Ancestry that we cannot maintain our own databases, we cannot even remove them. If you find information at Ancestry with my name attached please search my website for current information, the databases posted at Ancestry contain inaccurate information. - Karen Rowe. |
