For further information on this topic, please consult Edward David Luft's excellent book on the subject, The Naturalized Jews of the Grand Duchy of Posen in 1834 and 1835. There should be files in some archive listing information on all holders of each such award unless the archive was later destroyed. In some cases, such as the French Legion of Honor, the lists are even published, such as in Les Fastes de la L gion d'Honneur . The awards offer a rich source of genealogical materials and include many Junkers, including those of Polish name and ancestry. The following additional city directories appeared, but the present location of some of them is unknown.
Many years are available elsewhere in Poland and Germany.
At various times, directories appeared for other parts of the province, including some rural areas. Many thanks go to Angelika Ellmann-Kr ger who located the volume in Berlin and who made most of the photocopy. To Edward David Luft who made the material available to PolishRoots for indexing and for proof reading the compiled index. Thanks also to Beverly Szumowski who compiled the index from the original work. All rights reserved.
