Marriage Notes for Peter Gottlieb Holtzen and Augusta Rosina Gaender Gander: Low German is an archaic form of German. The residents of Cole Camp, a village in west central Missouri, are certainly doing the utmost to keep it alive.
Cole Camp is a small village in west central Missouri. Its community emblem very much resembles the state emblem of Lower Saxony, one of the German federal states: It shows a white horse against a red background. This clearly indicates: "Lower Saxons live here".
Cole Camp was founded in 1834 by northern German immigrants, who had left their desolate homes in the barren moor region between Hamburg and Bremen. When they came, they brought a distinctive heritage with them - the Low German dialect and its repertoire of traditional stories and poetry . The dialect has been passed on from one generation to the next, and is still alive in Cole Camp. About two hundred of the 1,000 town inhabitants speak to each other in Low German.
