Are you curious to know where your ancestors came from and what they did? Have you heard rumours about a particular ancestor that you would like checked out? Did you ever wonder what happened to a relative who seemed to simply disappear? Have you ever wondered if you have close relatives living today that you never knew about? Are you short on time or haven’t a clue where to start?
Compassionate candour, an inquisitive nose, persistence and a good ear are some of the personal qualities needed to be a decent genealogist. I approach my work with compassion and humour but also a total focus on finding fact rather than educated guesswork. I understand that each piece of work I take on has its own unique set of challenges and nuances.
