[Pgla] query

[Frank.Kessler at ec.europa.eu]

Dihr liewe Leit,
 
the exact figures from the Census 2000 are the following for Monroe County:
 
German: 1325
Pennsylvania Dutch: 180
Dutch: 85
 
My impression is that most of the dialect speakers in Monroe County live around Kresgeville and Kunkletown.  
 
Mach's gut,
 
Frank 
 
PS: since a few months the Pocono Record has started to report more frequently about the Pennsylvania Germans. I am very pleased with this development.

	I got an inquiry from the Pocono Record:
	 
	Does anyone have the approximate number of PG speakers in PA?
	 
	Also does anyone know about how many PG speakers there are in Monroe County?
	 
	Thanks,
	 
	Bill
