I am researching the Harter family for a friend. There is an extensive family tree on familysearch.org. Her family connects with this family tree through Lorentz Harter and Anna Apolonia Helmer.
I have read the book Winter's Wrath by Kay Ellen Gilmour. This is a wonderful book with insights to why the Germans left the country for America and the struggles they overcame.
