Building your family tree and learning about your ancestors is fun! It’s detective work at its best. Ancestry Consulting by Aimee, my professional genealogy business and this channel were born out of a desire to help others discover their family history. I have been working on my genealogy since a teenager and became a professional genealogist 10 years ago. Whether breaking through a genealogy brick wall, finding ancestors through DNA matches, beginning genealogy research, or discovering your family origins, I want to help you build your family tree! Some of my favorites: Ancestry.com, FamilySearch, MyHeritage, Find My Past, FamilyTreeDNA, Fold3, Newspapers.com, Chronicling America, National Genealogical Society as well as local and state genealogical societies.
While I specialize in United States genealogy, these videos outline research methods which will help you research your family history anywhere. Happy hunting!
