The Adelsverein Trilogy, and the books which share the same four family trees span the years between 18. Those novels can be described as a family saga, in that characters appear in various books and not always as a main character. The historical period ranges from the 1820s, up to World War Two. All but one of my historical novels are loosely connected, linked by a many-branched family tree: two German families who arrived in Texas in the late 1840s through the Adelsverein consortium, another family of mostly German descent who had long been residents of Pennsylvania before migrating to Texas in response to Stephen Austin’s invitation to settlers, and a fourth family of well-to-do Bostonians - who nonetheless, also have a connection to Texas.
