This collection includes city directories (various directories from 1865 to 1952) and compiled genealogies for the Schaffhausen area. The three compiled genealogies are especially valuable; they compile vital information (names, dates, and places) for Schaffhausen families and arrange this data by surname. Persons seeking information about a particular ancestor can look up the ancestor by surname and likely will add multiple generations to their pedigree. | This collection includes city directories (various directories from 1865 to 1952) and compiled genealogies for the Schaffhausen area.
