Discover the Migler family's journey from the upper region of Elass/Alsace
into Czar-controlled Russia, and finally to the prairies and plains
of the United States. This book is dedicated to the author's grandparents,
Anton and Christina (nee Migler) Sander.
The Migler Family History provides historical information
about the remarkable journey and the origin of the Migler family.
The book contains family genealogical charges and historical data
tracing the author's ancestors' migration from the province of Elsass/Alsace
to the Odessa region of South Russia (today near Odessa, Ukraine).
Elsass was one of the six Catholic mother colonies of the Kutschurgan
District. The other colonies were Baden, Kandel, Mannheim. Selz,
and Strassburg.
The extended Migler family in the United States is concentrated
in the Rugby/Balta area of Pierce County, north central North Dakota.
Large numbers of Milgers who immigrated directly from Germany and
Alsace are living in the eastern United States.
Also included in the book is the story of the journey of the author's
grandparents migration from Russia to the United States. All the
data for the family records was retrieved from authenticated archived
documents from Germany, France, Russia, and the United States.
The Migler Family History is a compelling account of the
extraordinary individuals and families who shaped the Migler family.
