Genealogy and record research

Do you have a Canadian ancestor—but no clear paper trail?

I research the records that connect you to a Canadian parent, grandparent, or earlier ancestor. My work focuses on the direct family line and the evidence needed to document each relationship.

How I can help

Build the paper trail.

Research the direct line

I trace the parent-to-child relationships between you and your Canadian ancestor.

Locate and obtain records

I search Canadian and United States sources for birth, marriage, and other records that document each generation.

Resolve discrepancies

I analyze conflicting names, dates, and identities and explain the evidence in a fully cited report.

When might you need a genealogist?

If your Canadian parent already has proof of citizenship and your birth certificate clearly identifies that parent, you may not need professional genealogy research. My services help when the Canadian connection runs through several generations, records remain missing, or conflicting information interrupts the documentary chain.

Genealogy research, not citizenship advice.

I provide genealogical research, record retrieval, evidence analysis, and a documented report. I do not determine citizenship eligibility, select an IRCC application pathway, prepare citizenship applications, or provide legal or immigration advice. Only Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada can determine citizenship status.
