“Heike always goes above and beyond to find the missing links. Her service is friendly, timely and efficient. I highly recommend Beyond History for all of your historical research needs.”
Lee Hooper (historical researcher, Australia)

"Thank you for the quick reply and the big help in finding my great-great-great-grandfather and other ancestors from this and other family lines. I would have never thought that it would be possible so quickly. With this information, I was able to close a major gap in my family tree and I am very happy about it."
Susanne Kollath (Flensburg, Germany)

"Thank you for utilizing your talents, skill, and connections on my family's behalf.  You are a credit to your profession.When I began the research, I contacted two other people in Germany.  The first responded with the question, "What's your budget?".  The second sent me one e-mail then nothing more.  Then I decided to look for a professional genealogist on the Association of Professional Genealogists website.  When I narrowed the list down to those in the area of Gnarrenburg, I checked out each one.  You were the only person on the list who had an English language website using correct grammar.  I thought that if you cared enough to do the website right, you'd do the research right as well."
Randy Metscher (Fort Worth, TX, USA)

"Just wanted to say a big thank you for the excellent-quality service that I got from your company. That was crucial to my German citizenship application, which has now been concluded.

"I cannot give your company enough thanks for all the work which has been done. Again, I am so pleased with the information and story you have discovered so far about my family - it feels so good to have finally knocked down this 'wall' about my great-grandfather.  I wish you and all the staff of Beyond History a great day and a great weekend coming up."
Rusty Wolfe (Houston, TX, USA)

"It was your research for the Australian "Who Do You Think You Are?" that made me contact you and how glad I am that I did. Within 24 hours my great-great-grandfather Johann Carl Friedrich Peters' baptism record was found in Hamburg in 1847. Thank you again for all your help with my German ancestry."

This is a difficult case [...]. Since it involves legal issues, I knew you were the one I wanted to assist with research."

"Back in 2009 I ran into the proverbial "Wall" with my paternal Family Tree and was getting no where. I found Beyond History on the Web and took a chance. Because of their expertise I now have 15 research reports, more than 150 new documented additions to my Family Tree, and a very healthy respect for the unique difficulties of genealogical research within Germany. I have just ordered Report 16.  
Cheers,"
