Testimonials
My Uncle is the one who initially tried to search for our ancestors. When I showed him the information you provided, he got tears in his eyes and was amazed that finally he knows his great-grandparent lineage. Our whole family is grateful for your help in understanding our history. You have been so great to work with. Once again, I appreciate your expert help! 
I am a genealogist from England and having recently discovered several Danish ancestors in a couple of my clients' family trees I needed to connect with a researcher in Denmark. I couldn't have chosen anybody better than My Danish Roots who I found to be extremely knowledgeable, thorough and always prompt. They were able to answer all of my queries in good time and provided fascinating detail which brought these long dead individuals to life for my clients. I would highly recommend My Danish Roots to anybody considering commissioning Danish genealogy research. 
Thanks for a wonderful effort. We are very pleased with the information you have found. It will keep us busy for a long time. I’d recommend you to anyone. When I return from this overseas trip I plan to contact the organization that suggested I contact you and give them some very favourable feedback. 
Outstanding. I am stunned at the volume of information you were able to provide. It is much more than I expected. I am very grateful to you for sharing your talent at research with an American with proud Danish roots. If anyone is considering investing in a genealogist to do research, one cannot find anyone more proficient or professional than My Danish Roots.
Thanks to your work and help I have broken down a huge brick wall in my research. This family has stumped me for fifteen years or more but that has now been solved thanks to your good work. I will get back to you in a couple of months. If you have any feedback for me on this research project (bad or good) I would appreciate hearing from you. From my perspective this has been an excellent experience – not just for getting the answers but also for working with you as a professional researcher. I feel more comfortable with the work I've done and see ways to improve what I do for the future.
Thank you so much for the work you did on my family history. I am so excited to have this information. It means a great deal to me. It was so nice of you to go out of your way to take a photo of the house that my 2x great grandfather lived in. It means a lot to me, and I am so happy to have it. I am thrilled with the information you were able to find, and so pleased at how quickly and efficient you are. I have been looking for information on my ancestor for almost five years with no luck. You were able to provide important details in such a short time, a great big THANK YOU!!!! I would be happy to use your services again. 
Thank you so much for what you have found. This has been a real treasure, and I can’t wait to pass it on to other family members. I will most certainly be back in touch for any future assistance with Danish genealogy. You have been so thorough and professionally and it is much appreciated.
I like to thank you very much for finding my four new family members in Frederikshavn in record time. Me and my wife have been to meet them all and I got among other an invaluable beautiful photo of my great grandfather. I will pass on your details to the Danish club so others may seek your service.
Wow! That was quick and very interesting. Many of the facts you find follow parts of the family story my grandmother told us. Definitely continue on as you suggested. I will be anxious to read what you find. I am very excited to have this information to share with my family. My grandmother always asked that I try to find her father's history. I am happy to have information that she never knew. I am ecstatic to share this information with the remainder of my family. Thank you very much!"
My sincere thanks for your excellent work in locating the predecessors of the Danish family who migrated to Australia in 1871. The additional information you provided has given descendants here a clear and detailed record of their ancestry in Denmark. You prompt attention and response to all matters raised is much appreciated.
With this new family information, you have now found extended family members of all of my grandfather's sisters, which is a credit to you for the great work you have done for our family here in Canada and we thank you for that.
I cannot thank you enough for all your careful research into my Danish family history. Your expertise and skill at doing this work are mightily impressive; I'm so lucky to have found you to do the job. After so many years of walking in the dark, I'm overjoyed suddenly to have this information about my great-grandmother and her parents and siblings and to know at last where they lived in Denmark."
When my wife's family wanted to learn more about her late Danish grandmother's story and lineage in Denmark, we decided to reach out for the help of a professional genealogist. We found MyDanishRoots online, were impressed with what we saw and decided to engage Niels to help us. We have been thrilled with the results. Niels researched where the family had migrated from to the U.S, and found and shared with us numerous documents from census data, birth records, and church files that took us back three more generations. He was able to tell us the exact address where my wife's grandmother was born as well as where she lived before coming to America in 1907. Niels was easy to do business with, worked within our budget and did a terrific job. We would highly recommend him and MyDanishRoots to anyone interested in Danish genealogy.

Who we are
We’re Niels and Christian, experienced Danish genealogists with detailed knowledge of Danish ancestry and the state of things in Denmark, both in the old days and today. Therefore, we can go deeply into the sources and maybe find information that is easily missed.
The bottom line is that you can benefit from our knowledge and long genealogy experience because it enables us to do effective and high-quality research.
700+ Danish Heritage Projects
Since 2013 we have completed more than 500 Danish genealogy projects; many of which exceeded our customers’ expectations, according to the very positive feedback we have received over the years.
We don’t undertake a research project unless we feel there is a realistic chance of success because we don’t want to waste your time and money. It is important to note that nothing is guaranteed in genealogy, though. Research is often unpredictable and no one can tell in advance how successful the research will be. We do guarantee, however, that we will do our utmost to resolve any issue that might arise.
If you want to build or enhance your Danish family tree, collaborating with My Danish Roots should be your first step!
You are very welcome to contact us.
