Consultation Hour with Jan-Mathis Holstein: Questions on probate genealogy and family biographies

About this Event

After studying history, Jan-Mathis Holstein first learned about the field of probate genealogy through a newspaper article on unusual professions. Following several years as managing director of one of the largest companies in this sector, he founded his own firm three years ago. For over a decade, he has been tracing heirs when people die without wills or with unresolved family ties. These investigations often take years and reveal international family stories shaped by migration and the upheavals of twentieth-century Europe.
