You can type Duesseldorf because ue ist the alternate spelling to ü. Going to put in Wroclaw although it was Breslau in German and only renamed after 1945, I think.

I got bitten by the Dusseldorf thing too, thanks for fixing it. You're right of course about the transcription, but I wasn't used to someone here doing it. The same holds for Nürnberg, btw. And you forgot to add Wroclaw as alternative in the 1939 count. Are you also going to accept Wrocław (which is the official Polish spelling)? :)

Your source doesn't say so, but I guess the 1939 is from January, as otherwises Prague would make the list again. :)

confusing how Vienna (Wien) is a German city in 1849 but not in 1880. Did the Viennese stop speaking/being German? (and then magically take it up in 1939 - just during the Anschluss.) Dusseldorf and Konigsberg should be acceptable answers.

Reluctantly I put in Dusseldorf. Fixed 1939 and added the Polish spelling. @ddt: 1939 is from the census on 05/17/1939.

Since you did decide to put in "dusseldorf", could you also put in "konigsberg"? At least that way it's consistent - thanks!

@zoopy: It's rather difficult to define Germany for 1800 and 1849 as, in more or less its current form, it was only founded in 1871. Before that there were many different states. In 1871 however, Austria was not part of the club, so Vienna disappears, peeks up again after 1938 and leaves again in 1945. Got all but two - Prague ist bad enough, but how I could miss Cologne is beyond me...

I guess the 1800 and 1849 censuses take as Germany the HRE resp. the German Confederation. Austria was part of both (but not the whole Austrian-Hungarian Empire - only the Austrian part). @darthconnie: yes I saw too the 1939 census was from May. Bohemia was occupied by the Reich at the time, but not annexed.

Could we have Kaliningrad as an alternative for Konigsberg?

ddt - if 1800 = Holy Roman Empire, then either Brussels should be included (as technically still part of the Empire until 1801) or Cologne should be excluded (as effectively annexed by France in 1795)
