Tracing Your German Ancestry

Traveling and migrations are widely spread throughout the world. In most cases, people go to other countries to satisfy their curiosity, or for the sake of some minor changes in their lives. Anyway, they are homeward-bound. For other people such minor changes are too insignificant, their souls are arranged so that they just won't live peacefully in one place, and they require something greater than just a fun journey. They change their whereabouts, they move, they migrate far away leaving their homes and relatives behind in hope of better life and bright future. And no nation of the world is an exception! Neither are Germans.

As a German Culture Guide at About, I get dozens of letters from people located all over the world with requests to help them find their German roots. Although living far from Germany, people long to maintain their family relations, and it is wonderful! In my attempts to help I have compiled quite a number of links on German genealogy. You can see the entire collection at the special genealogy page on this site, or right here below. Any serious research must have its serious theoretical grounds. Beginners are strongly recommended to start with some genealogy lessons, and finally get into the real genealogical search. Good luck in your investigations!
