Information
for this index was
provided by Louis
Schleuger and Judy
Curtis from the FSL
as published by
Jerry Krieger using
a typescript copy
prepared by
Valdislav Soshnikov
and purchased under
the leadership of
John and Marcella
Wark.
According to
it, the first
settlers were from
the following places
with the family
names shown here in
parens.
Unfortunately, the
clerk who created
this FSL, very like
the one who wrote
the
Huck FSL,
included only the
names of the
independent states
from which emigrants
came – thereby
creating a major
challenge for Norka
researchers.
This FSL is
now published in
Pleve, Einwanderung
… III:227-288;
information which
differs in Pleve’s
version is
underlined in
the following.
