Introduction

This page provides a growing list of US immigrants to the United States of America from Wallenhorst near Osnabrück in what is now Lower-Saxony in Germany. The page is intended to provide an overview of the families that emigrated to the United States from the villages of Wallenhorst, Hollage, Lechtingen, Rulle, and Pye.

The list of emigrants is sorted by year of emigration (or immigration). The list is not yet complete.
