Document search

[Mademarion]

I wonder if anyone can point me in the right direction.  I have both my grandmother and grandfather's place and dates of birth in Germany.  I would like to find documents relating to both of them but despite looking on commercial sites have had no luck.

I think you need to contact the relevant Standesamt (Municipalty offices)?
Then, usually, you have to apply in writing stating as much information as possible.

This is from the German Canadian Embassy:
