Many of our ancestors can be quite elusive, which can make it extremely frustrating while researching our family trees. This is especially true for many of us with Irish ancestry.  My experience has given me success in finding many of my hard-to-find ancestors.  I will be glad to work for you in helping you track down yours.  My area of expertise is in finding our roots here in the Philadelphia area and abroad…especially if you have Irish ancestry.  In short, I take on your genealogical cold cases.

Records of research include census records, vital statistics, directories, church records, immigration records, military records, property records, newspapers, and more. There is a plethora of information out there, but it takes a willingness to do the hard work of scouring through the various records, some of which are extremely hard to read.  Even some of the well known genealogy sites contain errors in their search results.  For example, a person baptized as John Hurley might show up mistakenly as John Murley simply because the volunteer researching through the records might misread the original text, therefore, making our search attempts more in vain.  With over 25 years experience in this area, I can put my knowledge and persistence to work for you and help you on your quest to discover your roots.
