I am the majority of German and since i don't know much about it I am going to tell you about why the germans came to america. Most of the Germans in Germany were farmers and skill workers. When they came to America in the 1800's they usually  settled in the midwestern region of America but some of them kept moving west and also a portion of the Germans moved to texas.

Once the Germans made it to America they usually kept there skill that they had in Germany such as farming,bakers, butchers, cabinetmakers, cigar makers, distillers, machinists, and
tailors. The women that came over did not do the usual thing that most of the women of this time did for jobs such as factory worker or clerk at a store. Instead they were bakers, domestic workers, hotel keepers, janitors, laundry workers, nurses, peddlers, saloon keepers, and tailors. Thats more about Germans and what they did when they came over to America.
