Original quotations from our clients

"... your work is great, you did excellent research for us ..."

My fifteen year old daughter and I embarked on a family research tour of ancestral towns and cemeteries. Wolfgang organized everything so well. We were able to get a lot accomplished in very little time because he had everything coordinated properly. From getting the keys to the cemeteries to making sure we had the correct directions, Wolfgang orchestrated our trip to perfection. He was also able to help us with much needed translations. The trip would not have been as successful as it was without Wolfgang's help. I hope to return soon and hope Wolfgang will be available again!
"The results of the research have made me sleepless and speechless! Sleepless - due to the excitement in discovering many new family members, and speechless - due to the astonishing results unearthed from archival material."
"As a descendant of survivors of the Holocaust, I have watched the cautious trepidation in the eyes of my family each time I suggested that we research our German Jewish roots. Aside from the horrors suffered, it was perhaps fear in receiving confirmation that all had indeed been lost, that elicited the negative response each time the suggestion came up. Now that these members of the family are long gone, and I have the results of Dr. Fritzsche´s research, I can only wish that these Family members were around to enjoy these interesting relations that, in our case, date back to the late 1700s. Dr. Fritzsche´s work is professionalism at its best! He meticulously researches each clue from pertinent archival matter and with his expertise in history is able to confirm and reconfirm data from other archives. The results are outstanding indeed.

"I am absolutely impressed by the fantastic research you have done. Very nice work, Wolfgang, I am so grateful for it."

"WOW! Thank you for your incredible work! I don't know why I had assumed that if the Mormons had filmed in that area, that they had filmed all the records which existed."

"Wonderful news, thank you very much."

"Ouah! This is a lot of info. Thank you so much for the good work, this is unbelievable. You are just great."
"... a good researcher who is honest and conscientious and a good communicator for the Rheinland-Pfalz and Hessia area ..."
