Hi,
I am completely new to this and only have some names and dates of birth, these are all from my dads family who I think are from Leipzig in Germany any help on how to go about tracing would be great.Thanks : :redface:
Do all your family (both sides) come from Leipzig in Germany?
I am only knowledgeable on UK and some USA genealogy - not sure about Germany!! Sorry.
Here are some German genealogy Sites: Ahnenforschung.Net - Das deutsche genealogische Webverzeichnis The German genealogy web index. Ahnen und Wappen Genealogy & heraldry. Database Search Utility Towns/villages east of Oder/Neisse Rivers located in the former German provinces of Pommerania, West and East Prussia, Silesia, Brandenburg, Posen. Finding a German Place of Origin - Suggestions Find your Roots in Germany - Links for Researchers and Travellers - Project by Research and Travel, Dr. Grams in cooperation with German National Tourist Office and the German Information Center. FOKO - Die Aktion Forscherkontakte der DAGV - Researchers contact database.
Let us know how you get on,
all the best,
Dave
