A standard research report includes the following basic components.
Please keep in mind that every individual research project is unique and so are its results and reports.


The cover letter summarizes our project's results. It describes how your research was done and which sources were consulted. It may contain suggestions for further research.
Family records describe one particular family in detail. They may contain names of parents and children, birth/ baptism/ christening information, marriage dates, and death and burial dates. They may also contain places of residence and indicate occupations, sponsors, status, and other pertinent information. All sources are cited.
The ancestral chart provides a clear overview of the family tree.
The family records list all relevant sources used. Normally I can also provide photographs or copies of the original documents, ensuring that all results are verifiable. You will also receive translations or summaries of document contents!
A general map of Germany and its states shows you the exact region where your ancestors lived.
A local map shows you the towns and villages that your ancestors came from.
I do my best to comply with special wishes for photographs of specific places, addresses, brochures, chronicles, local history information, and other items.
Prices:
Professional and thorough research on site in Germany generates various costs.
These arise for:
  • Travel
  • Archive fees
  • Certification fees
  • Phone calls
  • Postage
  • Photocopies
  • Photographs
  • Office supplies
  • Banking charges
  • German VAT
  • Other
I do not keep my clients guessing about kilometers driven, number of copies made, and so on. Instead, I offer a flat fee that covers all expenses and that is known to you BEFORE detailed research begins.
