Start here – Find your ancestors in Saxony

You are looking for information about your ancestors in Saxony (Germany)?

I can actively support you with your family research and search for data and documents.

Why me?

I hold a Masters degree in History, I am a passionate researcher and genealogist.

My own ancestors spent most of their lives in the Dresden surrounding area. I also was born in a town near Dresden. I have been living and working in Dresden for more than 10 years. Apart from the archives, I also know Saxony and people quite well.

During archive researches, both nationally and internationally, over the last years, I was able to expand my horizons. I learned how archives and their administrations work. Since 2015, I have focused my work on archives in Saxony and search in their “treasures” for you.

Let me help you find!

Here are some opinions from family researchers I worked for:

Experience – References – Testimonials

I can really recommend using the Research Service Thiele. Unfortunately, I could not go to the archive in Dresden in person. Mr. Thiele carried out the work clearly, without any problems and as quickly as possible. I appreciated the fact that I got to know the intermediate results, so that I always knew how much the invoice will be.

K. Frackman (Vancouver/Canada)

Mr. Thiele has helped me a lot in finding information about my family. While working on this project, he demonstrated an extremely high level of professionalism. Moreover, the support, provided by Mr. Thiele, was characterized by a high level of personnel engagement and human touch. He was not only trying to find information I needed-he was really walking me through the history of my family. I strongly recommend to approach Mr. Thiele for this kind of inquiries.

I. Vokatch (Geneva/Switzerland)

I am an old man in poor health and can’t do my own oversea research any more. Was a little nervous hiring a researcher but didn’t have a choice. Best thing I ever did !! Lars Thiele is a true professional, dedicated, motivated and very through. Easy to work with and keeps you updated on exactly what he is doing and why. Turned out that my needs were what I would call “out of his comfort zone, Saxony” and into Bavaria. He didn’t miss a beat, found me everything I could want and more. You couldn’t ask for a better researcher ! Highly recommend 5 star +.
