Produktinformationen "Moravians in Georgia, 1735-1740"
By: Adelaide L. Fries, Pub. 1905, reprinted 2025, 280 pages, Index, soft cover, ISBN #978-1-63914-308-5. The Moravian Brethren came to America after being persecuted during the religious wars of the 17th century. Their first settlement in Georgia was located in Savannah. The author gives a brief history of the Moravian community in Georgia and their eventual departure to England, Pennsylvania, and other locations. The Moravians ultimately vacated Savannah because their pacifist lifestyle prevented them from serving in the colony's defense against a threatened invasion from Spanish Florida. In addition to the author's running account of these developments, genealogists will find numerous references to transfers of land involving the Moravians, settlement maps, passenger lists of Moravian arrivals, a brief list of Moravian deaths in Georgia, and a name index to the persons mentioned in the text.
