Friedrich Armand Strubberg collection 1835-1962

The Friedrich Armand Strubberg Collection contains material documenting primarily the early years of the Verein zum Schutz deutscher Einwanderer in Texas, commonly known as the Adelsverein. The Adelsverein was an association of German noblemen, founded in 1842, who hoped to support emigration by German nationals to Texas. The papers consist primarily of correspondence and reports, with some business and legal papers, such as stock certificates, contracts, powers of attorney, receipts, and also some German-language newspapers and a few maps.
