Projects
Adoption and unknown relatives
Having worked with countless adoptees and families searching for unknown biological parents, the journey has led to many meaningful discoveries. Family photographs, personal stories, and, in some cases, in-person reunions with living relatives. No two cases are ever the same.
Y-DNA Surname Projects
Many family history researchers reach a wall with autosomal DNA, only going back a few generations. I specialise in Y-DNA surname and heritage projects, testing males from specific locations to uncover paternal lineages and family connections that would otherwise remain unknown.

When records are limited or missing, DNA testing uncovers family connections traditional genealogy may miss. It can pinpoint ancestral locations, identify tribes, connect living cousins, and trace common ancestors worldwide, helping clients discover their ancestral heritage and fill gaps in their family history.

As a volunteer at my local FamilySearch Centre, I assist family history researchers with DNA guidance and locating historical records worldwide. I also advise on DNA project setup and contribute to indexing and sharing records, images, and documents online for the wider genealogy community.
