Mennonite, Amish and Hutterite Heritage




Mennonites are Christians of the Anabaptists denomination, named after Menno Simons of the Netherlands. Anabaptists also include hutterites and amish.  There are some Anabaptist religions among the Pennsylvania Dutch, but most of them were Lutheran or German Reformed.
    




I came across the MAID website the other day, which got me curious as to what else is available for genealogy research.  MAID stands for Mennonite Archival Image Database.  It holds images of Mennonite people, places and events all over the world. There are many mennonite communities across Canada. 

Herebelow are links to some genealogy resources for mennonites, amish and hutterites.
