Joe Everett  The Hamburg Passenger Lists name index has been expanded to cover 1850-1914. (Images are still available to browse for the full collection, 1850-1934.) http://search.ancestry.com/search/db.aspx?dbid=1068

Hamburg Passenger Lists, 1850-1934

Karl-Michael Sala Joe Everett, Did you have something to do with this expansion?{:>)

Joe Everett There is still a note saying only 1877-1914 is indexed, but this is not accurate. The “about this database” section has the updated coverage information. I tested numerous searches prior to 1877 and they work.

  • Jo Meyer likes this.
  • Jo Meyer You did at some groups. You took the time to look and see what I was talking about.
     
  • Jo Meyer  on Facebook:  When I was trying to figure out exactly where my Meyer lived in Oldendorf and Roethen by Dannenberg, you tried to help. You suggested the solution would be in the AIDA link. and I believe your right. Often those little villages have their census roll on archives shown their. One can request a copy. Sometimes census roll includes the number of pigs and chickens as well as people who live there. There is a specific name for this. I went back to aida for another look. Also you encouraged me to write to the Nahrendorf church to ask more information. Which I did and I heard back that my Juergen Friedrich Meyer geb 1814 remarried and when he did that he lived in Roethen in the Gohrde forest. and I gained about three pages of information from the church which included his children’s names and his sister’s marriages. I also received extra data on the Luhmann Reinecke detail. One thing that was new to me was that Reinecke / Brese/ Luhmann had connections to village Metzingen. which I took anything like it as spelling errors. which I believe to be in Celle. One of these days I am going to send money to the aida source and get more extra details further. a link often does not work there. Or I would show you one result. sometimes just a little advice can work wonders!

Karl is always willing to help others. He has done pro-bono work for others and been quite successful in finding links to missing families. From comments of his clients, he does a thorough job with documentation. I have seen many praises to the success he has been able find for others w/ researching their family lines. I just wished I had German or Prussian ancestors. I know that Karl would be successful in searching for my ancestors.

Karl-Michael has been a great help in my research for my ancestral family in Pomerania. Not only did he help me decipher Tishhage to Dischenhagen, but I now know more about German script, then when I first started. He has shown me the differences in the way they would write certain letters. He would ask me to compare letters to other words in the text. An example would be the way the letter M was written. What I thought was a W, he would have me look for other words that had Ws in the word. I was able to tell the village was Schmintz and not Schwintz. I am now able to search through documents and church records on my own. Every once in awhile, I will find myself stumped, and Karl will jump right in and help me out. I have only great praise for him and I think he would be a wonderful asset to any genealogy group.

Karl-Michael Sala provided invaluable assistance in finding that my grandmother’s birthplace was not Bochem, Germany but was in fact Alt Bialcz! This is completely new information for my family and I never would have been able to find this information without Karl-Michael’s help! You cannot go wrong working with him for your genealogy needs!

Betseylee Browning
genealogist
I have worked with Karl-Michael Sala on the FamilySearch Genealogy Research Communities on Facebook for the past two years. He has graciously volunteered his time and expertise to our pages especially in Germany and Poland. We have had a great success rate as a team in solving patron’s lines connecting them in Germany. This has been difficult at times because we only see part of the information and because many times the town’s names have been misspelled. It is also hard because of boundary changes. Karl Michael expertise has solved these difficult problems. With Karl-Michael’s help we have answered many questions on how to do research in these countries and helped with translations of documents. Karl-Michael has added “spice” to our pages and we appreciate his help very much.

Karl-Michael has helped me research one of my lost family members. He is incredibly knowledgeable about genealogy research as well as Germany. I’ve been very fortunate to have met up with him on FaceBook through Family Search’s Germany/Prussia Research page. He spent hours offering me suggestions on places to look for information and offering moral support to keep me going. I’m forever in his debt.

I posted a question on a Facebook page about German Genealogy, and I must say, Karl-Michael Sala is amazing! I just began taking over my Peters family history from my mother and Karl was able to point me in the right direction. He then did “extra” work for me without me even knowing it! He digs deep and does it very quickly! He finds stuff that I have been looking for, for years! Thank you Karl! You are AMAZING!!!!!!

Hello Karl Thank you for the email. It’s going to take me a few weeks to gather all information you need. The reason we selected you to help us was because you seem to go the extra mile for everyone that you help for the facebook community. I just did a family tree on Ancestry.com and put you in as a editor. (I hope I did It right). I also went on Linkedin.com the other day. I want to make sure I understand . You want me to email and also mail info to you. I address it to your name at the Cheyenne address and the check made out in your name. My mom and I are very excited. Wishing you a great day.
