Kelly and I discovered a mutual passion for family history over 35 years ago. Years later, he inspired me to pursue genetic genealogy professionally — and I'm so glad he did. Every day, I see the profound impact that dedicated research has on people searching for their ancestors, their connections, and the lineages that have shaped who they are. Kelly has an exceptional command of genealogical methodology — specifically the Genealogical Proof Standard — including impeccable source citation, critical analysis of conflicting evidence, clear and in-depth narrative reports, and clean pedigree and descendant charts. He also holds an extremely high standard of professional ethics regarding project scope, the research itself, and communicating realistic expectations based on the limitations of a given project. His passion for this work is undeniable, and the lives he touches through genealogy — including mine — speak for themselves.
