October 7, 2021, Kristy Dreyer was Karl-Michael Sala’s client.
“I recently started trying to research my family tree and was worried I had hit a hard dead end. A county museum’s written history, told by my great-grandmother, claimed her family came from a place in Germany no one heard of- -Zeszeo. [Nor was the location found in any historical gazetteer.] She had numerous last names attached to her, and I didn’t expect anyone to be able to track down who her parents were.
Karl-Michael Sala aka The German Genealogist since 1979! was able to crack the case: Zeszeo was in fact referring to Zierzow, and he even found a baptismal record that originally misspelled the last name, with the correct name in the margins. It truly took a significant chunk of detective work to solve the mystery, and I am so grateful he was able to figure so much out from just a few inaccurate and contradicting clues. Much appreciated!”

Yet another German Genealogy research case is cracked! This time the MANZ case: conceived, strategized & researched alone by Lynell Pierce Sala, our Research Director!

Comments Off on Yet another German Genealogy research case is cracked! This time the MANZ case: conceived, strategized & researched alone by Lynell Pierce Sala, our Research Director!

Coming in “the front door,” its solution was NOT apparent. But by her trying the side-door & that tiny basement window–so to speak–Lynell Pierce Sala solved this MANZ case! Having used an online gazetteer for Saxony (Sachsen), Prussia (Preussen), Lynell Pierce Sala, our Research Director, ascertained the Catholic parish for Flessau. Not that she was looking for Catholics, but rather the Evangelical Lutheran Reformed Church (Evangelische Reformierte Kirche) records. But because the Catholic records for Flessau were listed to be in Stendal, Sachsen, Preussen (Prussia), Lynell hypothesized that Flessau’s Lutheran Reformed church members may have been a part of Stendal’s parish. Indeed. You see, there is no gazetteer for the Reformed Records, but rather just the Evangelical Lutheran parishes. <FastForward>

BINGO! There was the target ancestor, having been born on the exact day the client thought! Lynell Pierce Sala single-handedly cracked the MANZ case for our South African client. The client has been emailed & has been requested to send another retainer to continue that research in the available microfilms–& that’s in addition to continuing on-site research in Germany on a few of his other lineages. 10/29/2010 update: Large retainer wire transfer is on the way!

Lynell would not post this, but I will. I am so proud of our Lynie! She is a crucial link in our Team at www.GermanGenealogist.com

I Must Have Done Something Right.

Comments Off on I Must Have Done Something Right.

German Genealogy & GermanGenealogist.com Karl-Michael Sala’s

From the “I Must Have Done Something Right” Department:
Over the last decade, at both my daughters’ wedding receptions, I very proudly sang & accompanied myself by having played piano for Bob Carlisle’s “Butterfly Kisses.” There were not many dry eyes on both momentous occasions, but I was able to hold out until the songs were over. I know I’ve gotta let her go, but I’ll always remember my 2 dandy daughters’ stunning spirits & their Butterfly Kisses.

Now, from those two tremendous ladies, there are 4 gorgeous grandchildren–2 boys & 2 girls. But, hey, one more is on the way! More to come on all our Precious Butterflies.

Wow. Stunning & crucial conversations with able attorneys, dandy doctors, budding business owners, financial fiefs, general gurus, health honchos, marketing moguls & more–& that was just the 1st 3 months!

Today, I consulted with & sold a financial spreadsheet wizard & a, uh, spread-cheek wizard: i.e., a genuine therapeutic prostate massager (oh, boy) for those who are usually elderly or otherwise suffering from true(?) prostrate pressures & problems. Too much detail? I thought so. Here’s more about the amazing prostate gland.

ell, I wish it were for German Genealogy research, but it was for a $500/day online Google Adwords acct.

Mark L., who actually happens to live in my neck of the woods, investigated me personally to ensure that my calling a friend of his was no scam. It’s not, so after a great conversation which encouraged him, he’ll be emailing me karl.s@google.com his URL & data for consideration. Or, perhaps, he just looked me up online & read my profile at Linkedin.com. Either way, based on what he read, he thought my profile indicated that I seemed like I might be more than qualified to work his account.

I do the same thing at work: Some call with Google-oriented customer service questions. I consult & counsel & solve what I can. Then, I offer the complimentary account build (if they qualify).

It is not publicized, but my Google Adwords clients now have 2,000,000+ impressions (ad online showings) & 10,000+ clicks! Clicks means they went to the website’s landing page affixed by one of our astounding Marketing Campaign Specialists.

Yesterday, I signed up a Texas vehicle hauler for $250/day budget. It took some time, but he is now enthused that we’ll be building his account (takes about 3-5 business days, because, due to popularity of online advertising, the queue is getting ever longer. I’m both bragging & complaining.)

Interested? Call me at 1-800-826-9988 opt. 1 x23738 9-6pm PST

Email your details to karl.s@google.com

Oh, & if you’re interested in USA, immigration or Euro-Germanic, Germany or Prussia genealogy, I’m still your man. OK, Lynell is, too{;>)

I have now 46+ endearing endorsements on Linkedin.com; & that’s just since 2008! & that’s just from folks who happen to be on Linkedin!

At Adwords.Google.com, we ascertain the needs of the customer & fulfill those usually even better than they thought we could. If they qualify with a substantial budget, for no cost other than the Cost-per-Click (CPC), we can usually build an advertising campaign for them; give them a 2-wk & a 4-wk Search Engine Marketing Optimization (SEMO).

Wow, what a great Saturday–& I’m not even at work! What would some online target-marketing be worth to you, your mission & vision? <
