Born to a Turkish father and a German-Silesian mother I was destined to be interested my own family history.
Everything started in 2011: I was lucky enough to have a great-grandfather around. He often told me stories from his time in the war and one day I asked him about his parents.
He gave me a picture of them and I started wondering: Who were their parents? What did they do? My grandpa didn’t know either. And so my quest began.
13 years later and my family tree has +4,000 people in it. Most of my lines go as far back as the 1600s and I even discovered a direct link to an old german noble house!
