People in the documents

Surnames appearing in the 376 scanned pages of the geology thesis and the Bockhaus family history. The figure beside each entry is the number of pages it appears on. Selecting a name runs a search against those pages.

Compiled automatically from recognised text These names were extracted from text produced by optical character recognition of typewriting, printed forms and handwriting. The software misreads letters, which is why several entries note alternative spellings. A name absent from this list may still appear in the documents, and an entry here may be a misreading. The scanned pages are the record.
