My Services
Let me help you solve your genealogical research problems. View the descriptions below for details about my services. I also offer Forensic Genealogy, finding heirs for probate or real estate.
I will do genealogical research for the predetermined amount of time and provide a fully cited Research Report, Research Log, Family Group Sheets, Pedigree, and all discovered documents and images. This is beyond just names and dates. I strive to put your ancestors in historical, cultural and geographic context.
There are many online records, but there are extensive records that are not available online. You can hire me to travel to do onsite research, or I can consult with you to help you plan your own research trip.
Some old written documents may seem impossible to read, even those written in English. I have studied Paleography and can help you decipher and transcribe these documents.

Please Note:
I will use all available resources to solve the research objectives and locate ancestors and records. However, I cannot guarantee that I will be able to solve all genealogical problems. Some records simply do not exist, and solutions for some problems may be impossible. Conclusions are based on weight of available evidence. Absolute proof of genealogical relationships may not be possible. However, my methodology is sound and I will do my best to find as much as possible about your ancestors.
