Topic:  Cemeteries in Central Europe
The customs associated with funerals and burials in German-language regions of Europe are substantially different from corresponding rituals in the United States.

The presenter demonstrates how the individual or family grave and its appearance are of great concern to Europeans. The question of death and burial records–often asked by North American researchers–is also discussed in detail. 
Presenter: Robert P. Minert, PhD
