All intermarriages between German immigrants and other nationals recorded in Minnesota in the manuscript census lists for 1860 and 1870 were counted by city wards, cities, townships, and counties. Mixed marriages were between 2.6 and 9.1 per cent of endogamic marriages in 1860-depending on whether "German" is defined to include such marginal people as, for instance, Alsatians-and between 4.01 and 13.6 per cent of endogamic marriages in 1870. The distribution was found to be diversified. The originally sparse distribution of the pioneers and increasing urbanization induced intermarriage. The study provides basic historical data for the testing of the "melting-pot" theory
