Bio
Professional genealogist Ute Brandenburg is a bilingual German American living in Iowa City,
Iowa. Educated in Germany, she combines her lifelong immersion in German culture, history, and
geography with in-depth knowledge of migration history as well as genealogical sources of both
Germany and the United States.
Among Ute’s research interests are German immigration to the Midwest, research in the former
Eastern Provinces of Prussia, and Jewish family history. Ute uses DNA to solve some of the most
challenging cases of unknown origin of German immigrants. She is an expert on solving unknown
parentage cases in Germany.
In partnership with Ursula C. Krause, Ute presents German genealogy workshops with a focus on
the life experiences of our ordinary ancestors in their time in history at German Genealogy
