Chicago History Museum
The Chicago History Museum went above and beyond to help me crack one of the biggest genealogical puzzles of my lifetime. Their expertise and patience in reviewing archival materials and contextualizing local history were indispensable—I’m forever grateful for their guidance and support.
National Genealogical Society
NGS is the gold standard. Their educational resources, peer-reviewed NGSQ journal, and national conference offerings keep me sharp. Whether I'm tackling methodology, sourcing, or lineage projects, they always deliver tools and community that fuel both my passion and professionalism.
Society of Genealogists (UK)
The SoG in London has been a key resource in tracing my English ancestry, especially before 1837. Their parish registers, nonconformist records, and expert guides helped me make progress where other paths hit dead ends. Their courses and tools make even the most complex research feel manageable. For anyone digging into early English roots, SoG is essential.
The National Archives (UK)
The National Archives at Kew has been a quiet powerhouse in my research. When I needed clarity, when records elsewhere hit a wall, Kew delivered. Their collections helped me verify timelines, locate elusive military and civil service records, and piece together the details no one else had. It’s not flashy, but it is foundational. Every time I dig through their holdings, I leave with more answers than I expected and a deeper respect for the quiet work of recordkeeping. For any serious genealogist with British roots, this place isn’t optional. It’s essential.
