Joanie, I would also recommend Klaus Struve as thorough, straightforward, and very helpful. In an e-mail conversation recently, I learned that he is also a member of the American Schleswig/Holstein Society in Walcott, IA. He is a professional genealogist, which is one of the reasons you should expect to pay at a professional level, but also, if he has to travel in your behalf, the cost of gasoline in Europe makes U.S. prices look like Wal-Mart vs. Nieman-Marcus.
