Discover Your Roots


I have been researching family history for over 18 years.  I love the discoveries I've made and the journeys my ancestors have taken me on.  


I am eager to help you on your path to discovering your family history!

"To forget one's ancestors is to be a brook without a source, a tree without a root."

-Chinese Proverb

I can find local records for you throughout Connecticut and parts of Massachusetts or Rhode Island.  
Some important local resources include the History and Genealogy Unit at the Connecticut State Library, local town clerk vital records offices, and the Connecticut Society of Genealogy Library.
