About

Hello, I’m Tanya-Mai with over 20 years experience in genealogy and over 8 years in genetic genealogy and DNA investigations. I really enjoy what I do and I’m always excited to take on new projects.

My journey into genealogy began after the passing of my father, sparking a deep curiosity about my roots. I was especially intrigued by my maternal great-grandmother, whose story continues to inspire my research.

Today, I work with clients around the world, offering services that include translating original records from all European languages. I have a strong interest in history, particularly the social histories of England, Europe, and the United States, which adds depth and context to my research.

Helping people discover their biological families is at the heart of my work in genetic genealogy. It’s deeply rewarding and one of the most meaningful aspects of what I do.

Why hire a genealogist?

  • Expertise and Resources: Genealogists have access to and knowledge of a wide range of records, archives, and specialist databases.
  • Contextual Understanding: We understand the social history of different periods and can provide insights that go beyond names and dates.
  • Objective Insight: A professional genealogist offers a neutral, unbiased perspective — especially valuable when navigating emotional or complex family histories.
  • Cost and Time Efficiency: Hiring a genealogist often saves money in the long run, reducing the need for multiple subscriptions or dead-end searches.
  • Specialized Knowledge: Many genealogists, like myself, specialize in specific areas — providing valuable expertise tailored to your research needs.
