4GetMeNotAncestry.com Your ancestors want their stories to be told. Find out how I can help you tell their story.

I specialize in in-depth genealogy research, using often-overlooked sources--in the Hudson Valley and beyond. As a professional genealogist, I’d like to help you solve your ancestry puzzle. You may not know that most records have not yet been digitized, so they cannot be found on-line. One of my specialties is tracking down original sources, finding the records that can be found only on the ground, right in your ancestor’s own backyard. My forte is building cases where there are no straightforward answers. I don’t leave any record overlooked, often using sources many don’t think to use–from New York City to Long Island and New Jersey, along the Hudson River Valley and elsewhere in upstate New York, and in Connecticut and the other New England states.
