About these Pages
Together with my husband Gerhard Bauch I do family history research for private purposes.
On these pages you find relatives of Ulrike Engel. For data protection reasons, we do not publish vital data of potentially living persons.
The only purpose of this web site is to find more relatives.
For your orientation, there is a region page.
One important research aspect is to find emigrants, for details, see the Emigration page.
There is also a catalog section with detailed vital data for each person.
Regarding my person: I am born on Feb, 3rd 1957 in Kirchheim / Heidelberg, for employment reasons, I moved the Donnersbergkreis, Northern Palatinate, now I'm also retired.
My husband used to work as a Software Developer. He was employed in the IT business and in government authorities for more than 42 years.
Our mother language is german, both we both speak fluently english as well
Persons, who are related to Ulrike Engel have been marked in order to simplify navigation and research.
In some cases there is more than one date for birth, death or marriage for the same person or couple.
This is caused by multiple but contradictory sources for a particular person.
Please consider this web site as a snap shot of our family history research project.
We're still completing data, but sometimes it takes some time, until all results are online.
For data protection reasons, we do not list:
Persons, who died less than 2 Yers ago,
or, in case the date of death is not known, who were born less than 100 years ago.
Sources
Starting from my pedigree we tried to find as many descendants of my earliest known ancestors as possible.
We found plenty of them.
This derives from the fact, that the Heidelberg area has excellent family history sources, in particular, there are several heritage books covering Kirchheim and its surroundings.
The majority of our research results come from these heritage books (Ortsfamilienbuch).
May we kindly ask you, to also share your genealogical data with us, as long as these data refer to our relatives or descendants of these relatives.
Vital data, you share with us will be treated according to the rules lined out under "General Privacy Statement".

Data Structures and Methods
We collect vital data about persons I am related to. With "related" I mean "genetically related", Genealogy has to do with genes, hasn't it.
Adoptive children, stepchildren or foster children are listed, but marked as such.
Partners of relatives belong to the group of persons, we are interested in, while the parents or other partners or other children or these partners do not.
For every person we record
Names, also Nicknames and Titles
Birth dates, dates of death, plus the places
Dates of christening and burial plus the places
Profession, religion, public offices being held, social status
Dates and places of marriages
Dates of immigration and emigration, origin or destination
People in our database can be linked to each other in 3 ways:
per parent child relationship, see "genetical related" above
per partner relationship in particular, when being parents of common children
in any other social relationship
godparents, best men
adoptive children, stepchildren, foster children
children with presumed parentage
any other social relationship between two persons, midwives, teachers
In our collection we only use two genders "male" and "female".
There are heterogeneous partnerships only, same-sex partnerships are indeed recorded but in the same way as godparents or adoptive children.
This is no chauvinism, with these simplyfied rules, the structure of our database became less complex.
Some vital data are recorded with multiple instances, we did so, when we found different sources for one and the same event.
The same applies when a person has multiple names.
We don't deal with degrees of relationship because of the problems that come with marriages between relatives, some earliest known ancestors appear multiple times in my pedigree producing a confusing
number of ancestor ids plus a set of different degrees of relationship.
A child in our data collection has one father and one mother at maximum. This simplyfies our data model. In case, different sources mention different parents, we handle these parents as social relatives, but not as genetic parents.
Emigrants
Many people of my distant relatives emigrated, most of them to Northern America.
We are quite interested in learning more about these individuals.
Did they reach a European harbour at all ?
What ship did they check in ?
Did they survive the journey ?
Where did they go after arriving (e.G. Ellis Island) ?
Did they establish a family and did they produce more offspring ?
Do you belong to the descendancy of one of the persons mentioned on the emigration page ?
Would you like to share your family history knowledge with us ?
We think, that we can close an informational gap, at least for our relatives (here in Europe and in the USA and Canada):
For emigrated persons, family entries in German heritage books (Ortsfamilienbücher) mostly end with the hint: "emigrated to America in the year xxxx".
Now we try to track those emigrants, we try to find them mentioned in US repositories, such as "find a grave". We think, we are quite successful.
Kinship Calculator
Since we are looking for relatives with the help of this web site, it made sense to integrate a very powerful kinship calculator, that displays how you and Ulrike Engel are related to each other.
We recommend to perform the following steps:
On page "hierarchical Name Index" select the surname of one of your ancestors who died more than 100 years ago. (You yourself are not listed on our public online database).
Navigate through the index pages (sorted by surname and first name), until you reach the desired person profile.
Did you really find one of your ancestors ?, now we can assume that you are either related to Ulrike Engel or the person you found is a spouse of one of our relatives.
For relatives, you will find a clickable line named "related". If this is present, you are related to Ulrike Engel. Congratulation.
Now click on "related" and the kinship calculator compiles all common ancestors, the degrees of relationship, plus a list of the ancestors in between.
Now repeat these steps for all persons, you have the feeling, they could "match".
Now that we have discovered a potential relationship between you and Ulrike Engel we would like to ask you to share this news with us.
Please contact us, and submit at least these data:
Your name
The Ident Number of the person, where you clicked on "related" and who is your ancestor,
the ancestors in between, if possible also with birth and death dates,
Vital data you consider questionable or even wrong.
You have our promise, that we do not publish confidential data (say vital data of persons died less than 2 years ago or been born less than 100 years ago), except, these data have already been published somewhere else, for example in an internet online repository.
But we assume, that we are allowed to share the data you submitted with people who are proven relatives of Ulrike Engel. We are talking about less than 100 persons worldwide.
Last but not least: We don't want to sell you something. Our "enterprise" works on the principle "just for fun".
