In the early 1700s, a small religious group know as the German Baptist Brethren left Europe to settle in the eastern part of Pennsylvania. The orginal group of 50 families grew to 58,000 people by the late 1800's. In 1882, a part of the group split off as a result of differences in accepting modern machinery and marriage outside of their group. This Old Order isolated themselves from the other group and other people. In the 1950's a study was done to compare the Old Order to the original West German population and the neighboring population. Blood samples were taken from people in all 3 areas and blood typing tests were preformed. The study revealed the following. West germen 45%
nebiorong population in U. S 40%
Old order 60%
