Abstract
This body of work is a creation of historical nonfiction about the complex history of the Gemmer family from the 1890’s to present, and their connection to the history of German immigration in the United States. This thesis also reflects my personal reflective journey as a narrator searching for answers relating to familial silence and displacement.
