Germans from Russia: The Concordia Collection

Introduction
In the spring of 2020 Concordia University in Portland, Oregon closed its doors. This meant that all its library holdings and those of the American Society of Germans from Russia library, which was housed in the university library, had to be dispensed with. In the summer of 2020 the Family History Library, now known as the FamilySearch Library (FSL), obtained the Germans from Russia material (hereafter "The Concordia Collection"). The following materials are from that collection.

This page is a work-in-progress and it will take some time before it is complete.

Materials in the FSL collection do not circulate.

About this Collection
The list consists of various material types: books, maps, genealogical charts, and bound materials. Each entry is linked to the FamilySearch catalog (Linking each item to the catalog is a work in progress). Each column is able to be alphabetized by clicking on the arrows at the top right of the column. By doing so, you can see all the works written by a certain author or from a certain locality, such as Oregon or California.

Volunteers have added surnames found in the Bound Materials to this page. This means that you can search for the very book that includes the family names that you are interested in without having to search in the book to see if your family is there.

To search this page, follow these instructions:

If you are on a PC, press Control and F at the same time. Then type your name in the search box that appears. All instances of that name will be highlighted and you can scroll down the page to see them.

If you are on a MAC, press Command and F at the same time. Then type your name in the search box that appears. All instances of that name will be highlighted and you can scroll down the page to see them.
