This site is about the history and traditions of the Kingdom of Hanover. However I recieve many eMails, mostly from Americans, who ask me to find their German roots or to search for records of their ancestors.

This is quite a task and I would have to spend much time for that. As I am not a genealogist, I do not have the knowledge, the sources, and the relations for such a work. Neither is this my profession; Hanoverian history - which is the history of the country, not of single emigrants - is one of my hobbies, in real life I am a student of medicine. Now, opening a genealogic research agency for Americans would require so much time, that I would have to give up my studies and my work at hospital, but spend my time by travelling throughout the country looking for records, and other stuff that has to be done for doing a fine genealogic job. But genealogy is not in my interest at all, and by giving up my studies and medical work, I would not earn any money. This is why I cannot help you with your ancestors.
