Non-Audi question for German Members regarding death index
 

All,

Not sure if anyone can help me. Is there an online death index available in Germany as there is here in the US?

I'm trying to find Knut Zitzmann who lived in Berlin back in the 80's. I suspect he has passed away, but am unsure of how I can go about retrieving that information.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Matt

Have you read this?

The newspaper Berliner Zeitung also mentioned a Knut Zitzmann in 1996, as the person legally in charge of a company then shutting down its operations. If your Knut was a lawyer or businessman I'd guess the BZ were talking about your guy.

None listed in the Berlin telephone book!

I am curently in Berlin and from Berlin as well
 

If you can give me some more information I can ask all my friends that are cops now to run the name through the system.
