Family Trees, Genealogical and Historical Research

Picture
I am driven by a passion for history and the people who created it. I love to  sift through old records and photographs, maps, diaries and the like in order to  understand the lives of the people whose lives are expressed in the historical  record. To me, history is the compilation of individual lives and it doesn't  matter if those  people were rich, famous, pauper or poet. Everyone who lived
has contributed to history... we may just not know about them
yet.

My goal is to put together the details and stories of the life of a person, family or population
so that we understand the world in which these people lived and to develop a sense of who they were in life, as well as the impact on the people around them.

A person doesn't need to have been famous  in order to have had an impact on the lives of the people around them. None of  my ancestors were famous but their choices have had an impact on my life and on who I am today. That's what I'd like to pass on to future generations in my
family.

There are all kinds of people mentioned in the  historic record. Nowhere near all of them have made it into the history books. That doesn`t mean they were not important.

If you want information about a person, family or group of people, I would be  honoured to work with you to find the records and prepare presentation materials with which to share the information we find.

Even if you just have a little question you need help with, drop me a line and if I can help, I
will.

Sincerely,
Laura A.
