To whom is may concern; otherwise, just use the DELETE button.

GenealogyRO Group is the first Genealogical Research & Probate
Investigation Group for Romania. We are located in Timisoara/Timis County
but we have full research capabilities for the entirely romanian Banat,
Transylvania & Romania and we certainly can help you trace your
romanian roots.

Unfortunately, as you very well know, there are no on-line archives in
Romania yet and only a little part of the archives are available in
USA or Germany. And it will take, probably, about 15-30 years
to solve this problem [in Romania anyway!].

Nowadays, a part of the documents of the village churches, cemetery
records and mayoralty [baptismal-marriage-death records] are stocked
at the Counties' National Archives. But, for example, some
Catholic Church records for the Diocese of Banat [especially after 1895]
are still at the archives of Bishopric-Bishop's Office /
Bischofliches Ordinariat/Puspoki Hatosag in Timisoara.
In some cases, the archives [anyway, a part of them; especially the civil
registration for the period after 1895] are still in villages.
And in that case you must go there and talk with the mayor, the priest,
and the registrar of Mayor Office for a look up in the registers.
For more details on this subject, please consult our comment
"The Romanian GAP; Notes on Records & Archives for the Romanian Banat"
posted on FEEFHS Web Site at: http://feefhs.org/ro/genro/gap.html .
In the villages it is possible to gather good information from cemetery
[tombstones].
Through our foreign collaborators, we have access to german & american
archive too.
But, the search takes time and effort. All these archives are still on
paper! In this case, you only need patience, hard work and a little bit of
luck [!] in order to find what you are looking for.
But, we are very promptly and in 2-3 weeks you will have the first
information.

GenealogyRO Group is located in Timisoara/Timis County and
we are able to cover mainly the romanian part of the:

In some cases we can do research in the whole Transilvania & Romania
through our network of full/part time researchers located in
each of the romanian counties.
We do not work [yet!] abroad [ie Hungary or Yugoslavia].
We have experience because we already did/do genealogical researches;
not only for hobbyists, but for American and English probate consultants
companies as well.
Those interested can find references about our work and us in Banat-L's
archives [go to RootsWeb Mailing Lists Archives -
http://searches2.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/listsearch.pl - and submit a Query for
Banat-L].

In exchange for a modest fee [depending on the complexity of the
research and amount of research], you can employ us for
performing a detailed research.
Our research includes all major aspects of genealogical research:
-search and drawing up of family trees,
-search for living relatives,
-search for heirs,
-finding tombstones and identifying old houses,
-translation of old documents [i.e. Latin documents] and much more.
We do translations in English and French from Hungarian, German [including
gothic style], Serbian and Romanian.

All research and results will be sent to you directly. We can provide
copies of all documentation [in some cases legal/bureaucratic steps
must be followed; and these are not the same in every case!],
sources, findings and provide a summary report.
All information and results are held in the strictest confidence.
We do not reveal our client's information or names to anyone and tray to
conduct our business in both an expedient and professional manner.
All the details will be established directly by E-mailing us if you are
interested in such collaboration.

Until the launch of our WEB Site [ http://www.genealogy.ro ] at the
beginning of December 2001, you have the opportunity to choose
a specific service for your research project by specific request and
we will provide you more details about our services/fees through E-mail.
Just contact us directly at .
