A Website Dedicated to Pappe Family History
Family History

Pappe Family History in the United States begins in the minds of many of us on the day that Richard Pappe made claim to a homestead at the opening of Oklahoma Territory on April 22, 1889. But the Pappes arrived before that date and left behind many Pappe relatives in Germany. It is hoped that this collection of facts, stories, records and lore about our Pappe ancestors and kin will someday tell the complete family story.
