Going back on the Engelhardt lineage in Wuerttemberg, “Germany,” i.e., spreading off to other matriarchal surnames who married into the family, we are approaching now 10 distinct & separate villages of origin. 100+ new ancestral family members now assembled in digital format & posted online. Awesome.

Ancestry.com — I got my money’s worth out of Ancestry.com the very 1st day I used it–at its inception, long before they had billions of records! I am stunned with what they still give away for free! As a former Ancestry.com telephone research representative, we were all authorized to cancel customers’ subscriptions–even after their trial period had expired! But prior to cancellation, I was usually able to help them find what they were seeking–or get them on the right path.
If you ever feel shorted by Ancestry.com, Ancestry.com.au, Ancestry.co.uk or Ancestry.de, we are proud to make everyone a generous offer:
Lynell & Karl-Michael Sala are the very 1st 2 persons hand-picked in 2006 by Ancestry.com for the short-lived–but highly successful–Paid Expert Ancestry Research Line. Why? Because we would usually find data, documents or images for international subscribers, i.e., people just like you, who could not find anything.
When that effective team was dissolved (many tears), Karl was the primary German Genealogy research consultant for Ancestry.de! He also was crucial in helping with Australia, Canada, UK & Europe!
Chance of success? Either on Ancestry.com or elsewhere online: Oh, about 80%.

Sean O’Donnell, former Ancestry.com HR Rep wrote my 54th endearing endorsement on Linkedin.com: ‎”When I worked in Human Resources at Ancestry.com (then MyFamily.com) we provided training so our member services representatives could become proficient in customer service and sales. But when we wanted them to learn how to help our customers succeed, we turned to Karl. His expertise and passion for family history research were legendary. A true professional.” Sean O’Donnell

For our Deutsche Bank director client, research hypothetically, we are now back into the late 1600s for the ENGELHARDT lineage in what today is known as Baden-Wuerttemberg. Three different villages; a possible fourth yet to come. We love the ride. On the map, you can see where Baden, Wuerttemberg & Hohenzollern once were.

“Karl & Lynell! Help me find my ancestors–before I become one!“

After my 1976-77 2-yr mission to Germany for the Savior & His people, at Brigham Young University, I “clepped” or tested out of numerous German language courses. No grade; just a pass & pay for the credits. That, along with using the GI Bill I had earned as an honorably discharged Vietnam Era Veteran with the United States Air Force, & having attended school over the summers enabled me to graduate within 3 & 1/2 years (Jan 1978- Aug 1981).

The College Level Examination Program (CLEP) is a group of standardized tests that assess college-level knowledge in several subject areas. Many colleges grant credit to students who meet their minimum qualifying score…
Well, I went on to take not German classes, but rather bolster my knowledge of German Genealogy research. This included paid field trips to Germany (both East & West at the time), Czechoslovakia & the National Archives in Washington DC! Stunningly valuable experience that enabled me to become a top German Genealogist for hundreds of clients since 1979. <
