Not sure of any of mine, since I am still working in US records.

You might find this of interest, though... Germany and Eastern Europe can be real tricky to research because the political boundaries frequently changed. Finding an exact location is almost critical, in order to find such things as church records regarding your ancestry.
Have fun!
