What are the sources of this information? The Harger book doesn't get into as much detail as what is here. Just curious. --SHLAMA04:44, 28 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
Do you mean the bit on the general history or the section on people or the bit about the partitions or the bit about the rulers? - Nomadic108:00, 28 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
The people section is from Swenna Harger's book. I'm interested in where the general history was found, and the info on rulers. My family is from that region - Aalt Piccardie and Georgsdorf. Thanks! --SHLAMA09:34, 28 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
The stuff on the states and rulers is nothing new on the internet. This site has many of the German states: ellone-loire.net/obsidian/regindex.html. There are several others out there too (with more and less), but Obsidian's is good. The other stuff about I got was from looking up about the more specific history of the County of Bentheim. Kind of a shame when most of it ended up about Tecklenburg, Lingen, Rheda, and Steinfurt instead (which I got laszy and didn't write much about). I don't have my sources for that though. - Nomadic122:34, 28 June 2006 (UTC)Reply
