With the ever-growing availability of online records, many researchers today are used to doing
much of their genealogical work from home or office. But because of my convenient
geographic location just outside Boston, I also have easy access to several important local
repositories: the New England Historic Genealogical Society, the National Archives and Records
Administration (Northeast Region), the Massachusetts Archives, the Massachusetts Registry of
Vital Records and Statistics, the Boston Public Library, and more. All of these repositories
contain many records that are NOT online, and my years of personal research in this area have
provided me substantial experience with many of them.
In addition to being a Board-certified genealogist since July 2010, I am also a member of the
Association for Professional Genealogists. I have been researching New England ancestry for
more than a decade, particularly in northeastern Massachusetts, southern New Hampshire, and
southern Maine. My experience also includes some research in Connecticut, Vermont, and New
York.
If you need in-depth research in this area but lack the time or patience to complete it, or if you
simply need the services of someone closer to your ancestral New England home, please give me
a call or send me an email to see if I can help you. In addition, please be sure to look over the
rest of this website -- you'll get a better sense of my background and experience and how I can
best assist you.
I look forward to working with you.
