OUR SERVICES
Family History &
Brick Walls
Are you new to genealogy and overwhelmed? Do you want to know if intriguing family stories are real? Or are you stumped by what second-cousin-once-removed means? Hello Genealogy can begin research starting with very little information. We can work in your Ancestry tree or create a family heirloom worthy of being framed.
OR
Have you been researching for years but have hit a brick wall? Hello Genealogy conducts thorough research using a broad range of sources beyond the U.S. censuses. We work around tragic record losses caused by flood, fire or war. Evidence is correlated and interpreted to answer research questions and conclusions are delivered in professional reports.
Scandinavian Research
Scandinavian research can be complicated by language barriers, social customs, and naming conventions. Take your family tree "beyond the pond" and let us help you trace your Scandinavian roots.
Hello Genealogy has experience navigating the complex Swedish, Norwegian, and Danish record systems.
Forensic Genealogy
DNA testing is confusing. Hello Genealogy offers insight on the different testing companies and assists in the selection of DNA tests. We interpret results and use DNA matches to further genealogical discoveries.
Hello Genealogy offers assistance to executors, administrators, trustees, bank and trust officers, insurance companies, and their counsel. We establish and identify next-of-kin and collateral kindred of estate's deceased or real estate owners who are deceased or missing.

Records are not only created by the state. Baptisms, marriages, and funerals are all religious ceremonies and records may exist at the church or cemetery. Hello Genealogy can make contact on your behalf and make arrangements to search their records.
Research Mentoring
As a beginner or intermediate genealogists, you prefer to do your own research but you may not know where to go next. Hello Genealogy can help you progress in your research skills. We can put our knowledge of repositories, pay sites, blogs, and journals to create custom research plans.
