Just out of curiosity. I don’t have a real need for this.

So I’ve been trying to find info on my great-grandparents but after snooping around in ancestry.com and familysearch.com I realise there are no records for any of my parents, grandparents or great grandparents online. At least not on those sites.

And so I’m here wondering, what happened with those records? Anyone had any luck searching elsewhere? I’ve tried googling the names and nothing comes up either. Hooray for privacy I guess?

    there are offices that offer these services offline. if you wanna do it on your own youll need to request a lot of acces to city archives. At least in some countrys, citys keep many infos. including if someone moves there ect.

    So if you know where your grandparents used to be born, go there, and maybe you find infos about your grand grandparents. and then its just a game to hunt for infos. See if you can find your anchestors names in unis, or companys or something.

    I heard its quite tedious and takes years
