My graphic, juicy, informative newspaper articles research has been the stuff of which the greatest interest in ancestry, genealogy & family history has been piqued & stoked–on both my wife’s & my ancestry & descendants! Websites were beefed up with my exhaustive newspaper research & I even was finally given due credit for it!
Newspapers are WAAY under-used! OK, so Oakley, Kansas & Zanesville, Ohio’ newspapers were not indexed, but by gosh, by golly, we found a bunch of colorful history! But guess what? Carson City, Nevada was indexed many years ago! Everybody wanted to know the gruesome details of the ancestress’ murder, subsequent accusations were printed in the paper, trials & mis-trials, exonerations, etc. ad excitum (I made that up{;>)
However, Lynell & I’ve grown weary of people NOT finding what they seek in US & international records, i.e., just talking & writing ABOUT ancestry, genealogy & family history, vis-a-vis them actually GETTING it.
So, as multi-decade successful US & Germanic-European genealogists (see 17+ Endorsements at http://www.linkedin.com/in/germangenealogist) we have an offer good for all:
Retainers received from anyone by 31 Oct 2008, net themselves a 50% discount! OK, call it twice as much…{;>)
Give us your tired & poorly-documented ancestors! In what online or offline record can you NOT find your ancestor–esp. where you know they should be there!?
Even the long-sought-after European or Germanic parish of origin has been occasionally coughed up in a US newspaper article or obituary.

Karl is a pleasure to work with and clearly a magician at finding genealogical lines and names.” Hiley Kitto, Content Editor, The Generations Network (MyFamily.com)

CAVEAT RESEARCHOR: OK, so you’ve heard it a hundred times, but I must reveal it as a German genealogy research pre-requisite: Exhaust all home & family sources prior to doing online or onsite genealogical research.
Usually in German-American research–even if you are aware of the precise name of the parish of origin in the Old World–it is generally wise to exhaust the various interesting & informative USA county, state & federal records & immigration resources.
Also, there’s usually not much sense in “jumping across the pond” to Germany to do your German genealogy research in any country of Europe that had Germans–until you’ve ascertained the name of the parish of origin! Yes, that is much easier said than done, of course.
Two decades ago, I wrote an article for the Genealogy Helper Magazine. Thesis: by doing comprehensive USA, immigration and German ancestral & genealogical research, aka Deutsche Ahnenforschung, you’ll be so much more pleased with what you have for the data, documentation & image presentation of the family’s history! You’ll also more than likely be much more prepared to get into the thick of Germanic research in the Old Country.
We refer to not only the resources of which you are aware, but also those about which a professional German researcher or global Germanic genealogist. Our having inspected the foundations of numerous clients’ allegedly firm foundations, we found cracks & crevasses (OK, crevices, too{;>).

Another Recommendation For Karl-Michael Sala, Owner of NO FIND? NO FEE! ANCESTRY, GENEALOGY, FAMILY HISTORY MYSTERY!
In January 2008, in Kassel, Hessen, Germany, my sweet mother was struggling with the ravages & vestiges of kidney cancer & was on her near-deathbed. Lynell & I opted nonetheless to take a short visit to our client’s target ancestral village (Schlieben, Sachsen) in order to outright exhaust the parish registers of all ancestral family members’ birth, marriage & death entries. We took digital photographs of each pertinent ancestral family member’s entry.
The Grants Pass, Oregon client, Betty Barry, & her Roseburg, Oregon sister were elated that they were able to get all this digitally-documented research for about the price of just one round-trip ticket from Salt Lake City to Frankfurt, Germany!
No, we don’t get the marriages of every sibling–just the target ancestral sibling.
However, we do get each of their births, for the family history research is not only more complete, but the birth record of a child is often the source of ascertaining the parish of origin of the mother, that is, if from a different place.
We returned in time to help escort Mom over to the Other Side. Apparently, her mother & also beloved half-sister, Irmgard Boll Muessler were there on the Other Side to greet her. Mom, in her final minute of life, markedly energized, tried in vain to pull herself out of bed and called out “Mama!” and “Irmel!”
It is interestingly supportive to note that Mom had not mentioned Irmel’s name in several months. Although this event frightened my adult “little” sister, Lynell & I knew and taught my sister what had happened. She might now have a seed of faith.
