"When I asked Ursula Krause to do research for me into my German grandparents, I expected birth, marriage and death records for both my grandfather's and grandmother's sides of the family. What I got was those and more. Photos of the village and the church where my family worshipped. The unit history of my grandfather's World War I service. Leads to possible living cousins. And a candid cost-conscious appraisal of where research should be focused for the most benefit. In short, I got a thoroughly professional job from a thorough professional I wouldn't hesitate to recommend."

"Ursula is both a superb professional genealogist and a highly personable individual, who takes both pride and care in her research. She brings a superb knowledge of a wide range of sources, honed over many years of work. This is coupled with a forensically curious approach, rigorously objective, to obtain the best results possible. I have no hesitation whatsoever in thoroughly recommending Ursula. Having searched for a close family relative for over 30 years Ursula found the right information to complete the puzzle, successfully reuniting different parts of the family after 85 years."

[…] With some more digging, Ursula found a copy of my father’s NSDAP membership and an identification photo. I was 73 years old, and this was the first time I had ever seen an identifiable photo of my father [who was missing in action in 1944]! When our apartment was bombed in 1943, we had lost everything including all pictures that my family had collected up to that time. When I think of the day I received that photo, I still want to give Ursula a hug. Near the end of this research, Ursula finally found an official death certificate for my father, issued in 1949 and probably requested by his first wife who was then living in Erfurt. This was another most important document for me, because it confirmed that my father was a German citizen. This document became the source of my obtaining my own German citizenship confirmation in 2018. I am now a 2-state citizen, which gives me a great sense of closure.

“I had the pleasure of working with Ursula on my family's genealogy research. Ursula took the time to understand my goals and also set clear expectations. She meticulously explored various records to uncover fascinating details about my father’s family that I was previously unable to find. I truly appreciate her dedication and passion for genealogy. What impressed me most was her ability to connect the dots and share the history of what was going on at the time. Thanks to Ursula, I now have a deeper understanding of my roots, and I am grateful for her invaluable assistance! I highly recommend Ursula and My German Family to anyone looking to explore their family history!"

Dear Ursula, I wanted to take a minute and thank you for the research you completed for me and my family. I was nervous to hire someone that I did not know and have been so pleased with the outcome and your efforts. You provided a very clear proposal that was not the least expensive but well outlined and less than some others. You were very conscientious of keeping me updated and letting me know how things were going and next steps. The project started sooner than I thought possible, you completed all of the process and the outcome was exactly what I was hoping for to move to my next step. It’s hard at times to find companies that pride themselves on doing a great job for a fair price and you have certainly shown that there are people that operate on these principles. Happy to be a reference for you anytime. Thank you and warm regards
