East Germany on-site field research behind the former Iron Curtain!
I’ll later put in some details about my exciting 7 trips behind the former Iron Curtain to do research for an international clientele.

Kassel, Hessen, Germany research 2007-2008 nets hundreds of ancestral family members!
Oh, my gosh, do we have a great story to tell about our having found hundreds of our own German ancestral family members in the Landeskirchlichen Archivs Kassel! If you need research done anywhere around Kassel, Germany or Hessen-Kassel, please contact us for reasonable rates for field research. If you contract or hire us, we can have the ancestral birth, marriage & death entries meticulously researched & then burned to a CD for you. We then further put it all into genealogy software program & could post it online (or not).

Yahoo Best Answers for GermanGenealogist: 138 points Level 1 25% Best answer (2; but one was deleted for my having revealed that I do German ancestry, genealogy & family history research for a living. I will not apologize for the great works we do. The shame goes to a misguided human at Yahoo Answers for having deleted one of my “Best Answers.”)

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!
