Category:Emigrants from the German Confederation

This category is for people who emigrated from the German Confederation from the formation of the German Confederation in 1815 until it was dissolved in 1866. In the north it was replaced the next year by the North German Confederation, in the south the Kingdom of Bavaria, Kingdom of Württemberg, Grand Duchy of Hesse and the Grand Duchy of Baden would remain fully indepdent until 1871. In general if we know the specific country people came from, such as the Kingdom of Prussia, Grand Duchy of Hesse, Kingdom of Saxony, Kingdom of Hanover, Grand Duchy of Baden, Kingdom of Bavaria, etc people should be placed in the category for that specific place, eg. Category:Emigrants from the Kingdom of Prussia, Category:Emigrants from the Kingdom of Saxony, etc, but we do not always know, and some states were not large enough to create noticeable emigration streams.
