TThe following
database was taken from the Copenhagen police records of
people emigrating from Denmark to the towns of Cass County.
Towns included are Anita,
Atlantic, Marne, Griswold, Wiota,
and Lewis. This is by no means a list of all Danes who came
to Cass County. Some may have listed their destination to such
places as Chicago or Cedar Falls and later came to Cass
County.
Danish characters in the surnames have been
changed to corresponding letters in the English alphabet, so
that the entries can be found through the search engine.
Family members are not necessarily listed together; scroll
through to match up families with dates of registration. There
may be a few Swedes and Norwegians who are in this list who
evidently left for the US from Copenhagen.
You may also search the complete Danish Emigration Archives.  This link will display a Search Menu which allows you to search the Archives by name, birthplace, Danish county of residence, etc.
