A little about Emily . . .
I have been involved with genealogy since my teenage years. I descend from a long line of genealogists,
dating back to the mid-nineteenth century. Although I enjoy all aspects of genealogical involvement, my passion
lies with research. Working mainly with clients who have hit brick walls, I excel in stratagem and creative search
methods.
I always welcome new clients, and would be pleased to assist you in any way I can.
