The following excerpts of German surnames were made by M. Stone from the directories of the
Onondaga County Atlasas of 1860 and 1874 made newly available online by William Hecht (many thanks to him
for his generosity to the research community!). I make no guarantees of completeness, correctness in guessing at
German surnames, or
typographic perfection, so please check the original graphic scans provided by Mr. Hecht at the
websites given below. In the meantime, this transcript provides a searchable database.
