Looking for “signs of life” of a specific person?
I research this person in archives, newspapers and literature.
I determine the key dates of their life and the corresponding records.
Beyond that, I try to uncover further mentions and stages of their life.
Would you like to trace the ancestors of a specific person?
I search specifically for the parents, grandparents, etc. of the person you are researching.
Together we agree in advance on the scope of the research and how many generations it should cover.
Depending on our agreement, you will receive regular interim reports on the progress of my research.
At the end of your assignment, you will receive comprehensive research documentation with source references. On request, reproductions of the sources can also be included.
Family history to leaf through
Would you like to publish your family history as a book? You have collected photos and personal documents – I research further traces of your ancestors’ lives in archives, newspapers and other sources. Together we discuss the form and content of this unique keepsake, and I create a print-ready file or the finished book for you.
Privacy restriction periods:
I can only carry out research on individuals once the statutory privacy restriction periods have expired.
- Births: 110 years
- Marriages: 80 years
- Deaths: 30 years
Some institutions apply extended restriction periods for administrative reasons.
