Have there been wars or work exchanges between the cultures? I am doing genelogy research and I am looking for historical information. This ancestry could date back hundreds of years possibly more. I'd appreciate references for further reading.

Thai'd the Knot! That's Funny! BTW I am not unhappy to know this I am just curious. Thailand and Germany are a long distance apart. I figure there must some time in history through trade or war that my ancestors came to know each other.

One of their ancestors must have Thai'ed the knot.

They would have it if Great grandpa married a Thai.
There are far fewer historical links between Germany and Thailand than between, for instance, France and Vietnam, the Netherlands and Indonesia or England and India. Most bi-racial marriages come from colonizers / colonized, or in multi-racial areas (Hawaii, Singapore . . .)
Germans travelled all over the globe in ages past. They still do. Just because Siam was never a German colony doesn't mean a German couldn't have visited there, fallen in love and married.

German men were adoring Thai women as long as they know about the existence of "Siam". That´s the reason why even a lot of Thai women are married with Germans, and that´s not a new phenomenon. If you want, you may call this a funny weakness, but it´s a fact.

maybe the chance of some one being the ambassador and the Germans were big on training troops in small countries.
