We all have a history. Do you know yours? Let me investigate your family history. Are you curious to learn about where you came from, to learn about the people who came before you and made you you? Maybe you've done a DNA test to discover your unique ethnic mix and are now hoping to discover how you are related to your genetic matches. A well researched family tree is essential for finding the answers you seek. With a degree in sociology and a passion for genealogy, I have been engaged in family history research for almost twenty years. Let me use my expertise to trace your family's history using the the paper trail they left to create your own unique family tree. I will research your ancestors and create a private online family tree for you using primary and secondary source material available online. Some of these records include (but are not limited to): census records; civil vital records (birth, marriage, & death); church records (baptisms, marriages); military records; immigration documents and other published sources such as newspapers, city directories, and even school yearbooks. If you're lucky, I may even discover a rare old family photo. In addition to creating your family tree, I will also provide you with a copy of my research notes which may provide valuable insight as to further avenues of inquiry that you may wish to pursue in order to discover even more details about your family's particular story. |

Available Packages
|
If you purchase my basic package, your tree will consist of as many of your direct ancestors as I am able to find during the research period. The lives of your direct line ancestors will be searched from birth to death. This tree may contain the names of some of your ancestors' siblings but their lives will not be fully researched
|
By purchasing my intermediate package, your tree will contain as many of your direct ancestors as I can find as well as their siblings, spouses and their children. These are your ancestral aunts and uncles. Their children are your cousins. Their lives can provide valuable insight into your family's story as well as point you in a direction for figuring out how you relate to a genetic DNA match.
|
The purchase of my deluxe package includes all of your relatives that I can find during the research period. It will include direct ancestors, their siblings, their spouses and their children. I will also trace the descendants of those cousins' lines forward in time. This is called descendant genealogy. Your DNA matches are going to mostly be distant cousins. Descendant genealogy is going to help you discover their location in your family tree.
