Are you curious about your Family History and want to know more, but just don't have the ability or time to do the research yourself? Would you like to discover what interesting things might have happened to your Ancestors?

How much do you know about your ancestors? Were they pioneers, entrepreneurs, immigrants looking for a better life or just for religious freedom? What challenges did they face, what was their day-to-day life like? Do you know what motivated them to come to America?

Do you look like your ancestors? What characteristics or traits have you inherited from your ancestors? And what can they teach you about yourself and about your own life patterns and choices?


These are some of the questions that encourage us to gain more knowledge about our ancestors. Are there additional questions that have motivated you to explore your family history?

If you are curious about who your ancestors are and what places and events shaped their lives, then you have come to the right place. Genealogy research can help you learn about your family's unique history, traditions, origins, and how those things led to your life.

Allow The Genealogy Assistant be your guide on a voyage into the past. The Genealogy Assistant offers a number of genealogical and historical research services that can be tailored to meet your needs to can help you in the search for your ancestors. For us the reward is in the journey, whether we are researching your ancestors or our own.

Sherlock is going to Who Do You Think You Are? Live in London

WDYTYAliveRootstech 2012 is over and I had a wonderful time. It was amazing to be at the largest genealogical conference in the United States. How can you top that? Its easy ..... Attend "Who Do You Think You Are? Live" in London, England!

With a little coaxing from a person who shall remain unnamed, I was giving serious consideration to making the journey to the other side of the pond to attend the grand-daddy of all genealogical gatherings. It took some additional elbow poking from some fellow accomplices (you know who you are), but I finally made the decision to go and booked my flight from Boston to London.

In addition to making the rounds at the conference to see everything available there, I will also be assisting at the APG (Association of Professional Genealogists) booth ("Stand" as they say in England).

At some point in time that weekend I will also have the opportunity to meet my third cousin once removed (3C1R) and his family, whom I have not met before. I have met his parents a number of times during my visits to Poland.

Make sure to stay tuned to my Blog, as WiFi willing I will try to make some posts about my experiences while there.
