German Roots of American Christmas Tree Tradition
Research by Dr. Philip A. Shelley of Pennsylvania State College traces American Christmas tree customs to German immigrants. He cites early Moravian pyramids in 1747 and suggests Harrisburg saw trees between 1618 and 1826, with Philadelphia trees linked to Saxon and Prussian founders in 1834. Other records note English adoption via German royal connections in the 1840s.
