What if the legacy of one of history's most famous musical families extended quietly into the farmlands of Wisconsin and beyond? Beginning in the 1840s, a small group of descendants from the musical Bach family in Germany migrated to the untamed wilderness in the interior of rural Wisconsin, bringing with them stories, traditions, and a spirit that would shape generations to come. While there are other descendants of Bach musicians who migrated to America, these were the only families from the lineage that had been continuously employed in music for every generation before they arrived in Wisconsin. The gift of musical talent, intertwined with religious faith, would continue through many of these descendants for nine more generations as of this writing.
Through photographs, personal histories, and carefully traced lineage, their lives are brought into focus for modern readers. For Bach descendants, it is a journey of rediscovery of a large, shared kinship. For others, it serves as a moving reminder of how easily the past can slip away, and how powerful it can be to reclaim it.
May we once again remember who we were.
