'About Alsace-Lorraine, France Citizenship Declarations (Optants), 1872

Historical Background:

Alsace-Lorraine was a territory ceded by France to Germany in the Treaty of Frankfurt (May 10, 1871), as a consequence of the Franco-Prussian War. It included most of the region of Alsace and about a quarter of the region of Lorraine. The territories transferred to Germany were:

Alsace:

* Bas-Rhin department
* Haut-Rhin department (minus the city of Belfort and its Territory)

Lorraine:

* Moselle department
* 1/ 3rd of Meurthe department (cities of Château-Salins and Sarrebourg)
* 2 counties of Vosges (Saales and Schirmeck)

A total of 1,694 villages and cities (communes) were transferred. In 1871, the overall population of Alsace-Lorraine was 1,579,738 inhabitants.

The annexation was not popular among the French population of the region.
