I have 2 decades of research experience at a University level. In addition, I've lived in the South Pacific, Europe, and USA, and Canada where I have done research on the family tree. My current interests are tracking my Native American, Asian, Polynesian, Taino lines. Specific places are Minnesota, South Dakota, Montana, Washington State, and Texas, with interests all along the Norther border across Canada....as well as the Southern border of Mexico and also down into South America. My tribal interests and research are wide. The Micmac of Nova Scotia Canada into New England. As well as the Lenape Delaware tribe, the Miami, Mohawk, Ojibwa, Sioux, Cherokee, Shawnee, Apache, Comanche, and more. My Gedmatch number is A035533 and A650323. I work with Adoptees mostly using a combination of Tools from Gedmatch, Ancestry.com, FTDNA, Mytrueancestry.com, Family Search/Relative Finder, and just old fashioned research techniques. As I'm dealing with much Endogamy and Polygamy thru my tribal ancestry as well as an old family history with Mormon Church. I do basic translations. German, Spanish etc to English. Finally, my Cousins and myself are actively engaged in familial medical research to improve individual and family health.
