Genetic Genealogical Research
DNA is the key to performing genetic genealogical research. Using DNA match lists
to find your closest genetic relatives is part of the process. You must have already taken a DNA test
or plan to take a DNA test from one of the DNA testing companies in order to move forward with searching for biological
parents, adopted children or finding siblings.

Traditional Genealogical Research
If you are not interested in taking a DNA test but would like to know more about
your family history, traditional genealogical research is what you are looking for. Traditional
genealogy is still the cornerstone of genealogical research. DNA provides hints to guide you down the right
path.

The records that are most commonly used by genealogists include:
Determination of Heirship
If you have been appointed Attorney Ad Litem to represent the interests of the
unknown heirs, particularly those involving intestate decedents, it is essential to obtain a
comprehensive understanding of the decedent's family lineage. This includes identifying any surviving
heirs, their relationship to the decedent, and the means to locate them.
Even when there is a will
or known heirs, it is crucial to efficiently locate these individuals and provide them with proper
notice of their legal entitlements to the estate. By collaborating with an experienced and skilled
forensic genealogist, you can ensure that you've meticulously fulfilled your due diligence, thereby
facilitating the rightful distribution of the estate's assets to its lawful beneficiaries.
DNA Test Results Analysis & Consultation
Many people are confused or they just need some guidance to help them understand
what they are looking at after receiving their DNA test results. Many take a DNA test to get their
ethnicity percentages but soon realize they have a match list with hundreds to thousands of DNA matches. These are their
cousins and in some cases, a surprise parent, child or sibling will be listed. This is where things
can get confusing and a bit daunting for many people. If this is you, click on the "DNA HELP!"
button below to fill out the DNA Test Results Analysis & Consultation form, so we can get
started with making more sense of your DNA test results.
I will review your submitted form so I'll know ahead of the session what you need help with. It's
best if you write a list of questions prior to the session to help maximize your scheduled time.
After you fill out the DNA Test Results Analysis & Consultation form you will be taken to the
payment page where you can select which consultation payment option you would like to purchase. The
two options are 1/2 Hour Session $20 and 1 Hour Session $35.
