The German Genealogy Group is one of the most practical and underused genealogy sites available to researchers. While it supports German-American research, many of its largest and most valuable databases are geographic rather than ethnic, making them useful even when German ancestry has not yet been confirmed.
For genealogists, GGG is valuable because it provides name-based, searchable databases, not just articles or research advice.
