= Meyerss Gazetteer Instructions =

Meyer's Gazetteer will be used to find the German state (or other country) that the town of origin is currently located.

 Go to www.meyersgaz.org Type in the name of the town (don't need to include diacritics)
 * If there are no results try the following:


 * Partial-name search: type only part of the name and see which results appear.
 * Wild card search: use the asterisk (*) function as a wild card - the * stands for multiple letters.
 * Spelling variants: be aware that some towns are spelled differently now than when Meyer's Gazetteer was published.
 * Sounds like results: click on "'sounds like' search results" at the end of the results to find spelling variations.
 * Fuzzy gazetteer: consult the Fuzzy Gazetteer for possible spelling variations.

</ul> </ol>
