Endorsements & Kudos - The German Genealogist

GRAVE subject! Another GRAVE pedigree extension for Oldenburg German Genealogy research by Karl Sala!

Comments Off on GRAVE subject! Another GRAVE pedigree extension for Oldenburg German Genealogy research by Karl Sala!

Prior to the client having visited the two ancestral parishes of origin on-site in Oldenburg, we stunned the client Guilfoyle family of Kentucky & Florida with what we were able to ascertain on this GRAVE subject in Visbe(c)k & surrounding villages Oldenburg! After they returned to the USA, they were not happy with the research they were able to get from an onsite professional German genealogist, so they recurred in hiring us for additional research for the ancestral family from Bonrechtern & Rechterfeld, both villages that were a part of Visbe(c)k’s parish! Mary Guilfoyle wrote us an equally stunning endorsement–which I’ll later add to this post!
