     Group description

The Springer Hoax was a scam starting in the mid 19th century, often using a phony genealogy in various ways to collect money based on the supposed multi-million dollar estate of prominent colonialist Carl Christopher/Christoffersson Springer and debts said to be owed to him by various government agencies of Wilmington, Delaware and Stockholm, Sweden. It is notable today primarily as the result of amateur genealogists' (and others') mistaken reliance on the various Springer genealogies going back to Adam and Eve via Emperor Charlemagne.
