hello everyone, kinda new to this
i have only recently begun to find any information whatsoever on my
families geneaology even tho i have been curious for many years but
still i am finding it very hard
i apologize in advance if this seems to complicated or if i'm being just
too hopefull in finding anything with this bit of information
on one side i can only go back to my grandfather, he moved from Germany
to Scotland shortly after WW2 and then married my grandmother, they
later both immigrated to the US, there was some sort of falling out
between them and my mother so i never met them, my biological father was
an orphan and has no family information
my grandmother's maiden name is so ridiculously common that any searches
haven't seemed to provide anything usefull
there is also a family "story" (not sure how accuate) that my
grandfather suposidly changed his name shortly after WW2 to avoid some
sort of law trouble, not sure if he did this legally or not tho but i am
unable to find anything whatsoever using his known surname, i seem to
have hit a brick wall on that side
would anyone be able to offer advice or some sort of search method that
i could possibly try that i may have overlooked?
