ABOUT ME: Learning about your ancestors is fun! It’s detective work at its best. Discovering those who came before you is a treasure hunt with great rewards! My professional genealogy business, Ancestry Consulting by Aimee, and my You Tube 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 have been helping others as a professional genealogist for almost 10 years. Whether breaking through a genealogy brick wall, determining parentage through DNA matches, beginning genealogy research, or discovering your family origins, I want to help you build your family tree! While I specialize in United States genealogy, these videos outline research methods which will help you research your family history anywhere. Happy hunting!
