On June 15, 1904, the awful General Slocum steamboat disaster in New York City decimated the German-American community of Kleindeutschland: over a thousand women and children perished. At Geneanet, we honor the victims and survivors of the tragedy by documenting the lives of every known passenger. It’s a free and collaborative project, open to all.
