Kimmel Families Established in America Between 1800 and 1900

Members of these families appear in the Summary of Lineages web page with the prefixes "BA-" through "NI-."

General History

The arrival of Kimmels had ended with the American Revolution when ties were severed between the United States and England, and therefore also between the United States and England's allies in Germany. Kimmels from the German states began arriving in the United States again in the 1830s. Rather than being farming landowners as before the Revolution, these were trades people. Post-1800 families included German Catholics who had been denied access to the American states when they were colonies of a Protestant England. Kimmel migration to America peaked in 1860, then plummeted with the start of the Civil War. After the war the arrivals of German Kimmels declined through the rest of the 1800s except for a mild increase in the late 1880s. Towards the end of the century most Kimmel immigrants tended to settle in the large cities and towns with German-speaking populations. In the late 1870s Jewish Kimmels started arriving and their rate of migration increased through the rest of the century. The Jewish Kimmels fled eastern Europe as the Russian and Austrian empires expanded into their home countries of Poland, Lithuania and Ukraine. In total, about 230 different Kimmel men from all over north-central and eastern Europe came to America in the 1800s and established families here.

A note on Jewish Kimmels: Ashkenazic Jews were living in the Rhine area as early as the days of the Roman Empire. And it was as early as the Crusades when many of these Jewish families fled to Poland to escape Christian persecution. From Poland the families migrated east. Early rabbinical families had surnames, but most families did not acquire surnames until the Russian Empire and Austro-Hungarian Empire required all families to have them for the purpose of recordkeeping. By the time Jewish Kimmels started coming to America there were Jewish Kimmel families known to be living in today's Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Byelorussia, Ukraine and Romania, but none known to have come from Germany.
