Genealogy, as diverse and unique as your family.
Your personal history is vitally important to your posterity. They deserve to know who you are.

Today, genealogy is one of the most popular leisure activities all over the world.
Everybody is investigating the question: "Where do I come from and who were my ancestors?

Know your ancestry and enrich your life.
Every family has its own story!

Genealogy gives us an insight into the life, status and profession of our ancestors;
it also guides us to our home town and its social structures in the age of our forefathers.

In the church records or civil records I seek for you traces of your ancestors, for example entries of baptisms, weddings and deaths. For this purpose I transcribe or translate the old, often difficult to read records and compile the results with references and explanations in a clear document. Furthermore, I also research marriage records, residence registers, census lists, court or tax lists, court files, last wills, bequests or even books.

Of course I treat your data confidentially.

Every research is unique.
Trees are never complete. It's why making discoveries are such special moments for us.

Some families have always stayed in one place, others have moved from generation to generation.
How difficult the search for your roots will be cannot be answered in general.

It is important to me to give you a serious estimation of the costs for your family research. For this, I need some information to know exactly what you are looking for and what your research is already up to.

So, please feel free to use my contact form.

I look forward to accompanying you professionally on your journey into your family history.

Family and genealogical research is usually not done in a single step. You decide the pace.
Extensive research can also be continued on a continuous basis over several months or years.

Many people wonder what the limits are in genealogical research. There is no general answer to this question.

There are time limits that often cannot be crossed.These include mainly the 30-year war (1618-1648).
Due to numerous wars in the past centuries, some archives were irretrievably lost. Thus, at the beginning of any research, it is impossible to say,how far you can explore a single family.
