The
Mennonite History and Genealogy Web Ring
The early history of the Mennonites
starts with the Anabaptists in the German and
Dutch-speaking parts of central Europe. The German
term is "Täufer" (that is, Baptists). These
forerunners of modern Mennonites were part of the
broad reaction against the practices and theology of
the Roman Catholic Church known as the Protestant
Reformation. This Ring is a collection of websites
emphasizing the family history, research and
genealogy of Mennonites of Low German ancestry. In
particular Mennonites moving from The Netherlands to
Prussia and then onto Canada and USA in the late
1800's.
