BaltzerAncestry.com is a collaborative effort by descendants of Pastor Adolph F. H. Baltzer (1817-1880). Along with assistance from 'photo volunteers' around the US, they have provided the more than 500 photographs, articles, and documents featured on this site.
In 1845, Pastor Baltzer (pictured in frame, above left) emigrated from Berlin—then the capital of the Kingdom of Prussia—to St. Louis, Missouri. He later became the first president of 'The German Evangelical Synod of North America', now part of the 'United Church of Christ' (UCC).
Today, scattered throughout the USA and beyond, Pastor Adolph Baltzer's descendants bear surnames including: Baltzer, Jennrich, Kramer, Heiner, Erdmann, Langerhans, Jens, and many more.
Welcome to all genealogy enthusiasts!
