INTRODUCTION
In January, I worked with the Southern Colonist Project to identify the Salzburger History and Culture. My role was to separate SALZBURGERS from the rest of the Colonists who were around in the early part of the 1700s and open profiles based on our Reliable Sources listed below. The Concept was that as families traced their lines back to these Ancestors, we'd include them at PM's and have a beginning Profile established to identify them as Salzburgers. [1]
