Riassunto

The Shombergs are a very large family with deep roots reaching back to the first settlers in 1630 (through the maternal line to be feature in the next Volumes). This is the story of this family through history. Volume 1 is dedicated to the paternal line who arrived in the US in 1800s and settled in Wisconsin. At the time of the Shombergs, Dombrowskis, Dishers and OStrowskis emigration (1820-1880), their land was part of the Prussian Empire making difficult for immigration officials to categorize them. Poland did not exist on the map of Europe. Poles who were born in Poland were registered as being born in Germany, Russia or Austria. Only those who positively insisted that they were Poles were reported as such. That changed when they started to answer the Census takers. Throughout the book you will see the family being referred to as Prussians, Polishes and Germans.
