Today’s Genealogy Tip
Today’s Genealogy Tip—The census is your friend. Most people really start making new discoveries about their families in the census. Don’t just look for your relatives in obvious places, either. Look for them in surrounding towns, with other relatives, and even in orphanages and boarding houses. You never know what you’ll find in the census that will deepen the story of your family and lead you to new generations you have yet to discover.
Hello, and welcome to Ancestor Investigations! I am your personal genealogy consultant. As professional genealogist with 18 years of experience researching family histories and lineages, I assist clients with locating long lost living relatives, preparing papers for joining lineage societies, planning family reunions, locating birth families and adopted children, locating heirs to unclaimed estates, and helping people write and edit their family histories and biographies.
I am a member of the following genealogical organizations:
•Florida State Genealogical Society (where I serve on the board)
•Essex Society of Genealogists
•Daughters of the American Revolution
•National Genealogical Society
•New England Historic and Genealogical Society
•International Society of Family History Writers and Editors
My areas of specialization include New England, Southern, and Irish genealogy research, finding living relatives and long-lost friends, and preparing paperwork for induction into lineage societies. I also work heavily with clients in writing, editing, and preparing their family histories in manuscript form.
