The story of my ancestors
The first generation are my parents, their brothers, sisters and in-laws, which will not be included in this web site, as most of them are still living. Thus, my genealogical research commences with the generation of my grandparents, i.e. the 2nd generation of parents as well as their siblings and in-laws.
My cognate ancestors can be traced as follows:

The trail of my cognate ancestors went cold in Coldam due to missing church registers, which were lost in past times or not started at the time of the corresponding generation. The only remaining sources are levy registers, which give some clues about the respective families.
