On July 5, the newly rebuilt BallinStadt, Albert Ballin’s “Emigrant City” on Veddel Island in the Elbe River in Hamburg, reopened, giving visitors the chance to relive the history of the more than 5 million Germans who emigrated from the port of Hamburg to the US between 1850 and 1934. For more details, see my genealogy blog, Shaking the Tree.
