An every name and place index to the Luxembourger Gazette (Volume II of the 1987 reedition of Luxembourgers in the New World) makes this an invaluable resource for researchers. Not only is the Gazette an excellent source for determining marriage and death dates, obituaries often identify the town in Luxembourg where an ancestor was born or emigrated from.

The Gazette is printed in German using in a typeface known as German Gothic, Fraktur or Black Letter which can initially be challenging but is well worth the effort. Microfilm copies of the Gazette can be borrowed from several libraries through interlibrary loan, as well as from the Family History Library.
