I don’t just help you with citizenship – I can help with your whole tree! Whether you’re short on time, resources, or experience, I can be personal family tree consultant. I can help you get started, help organize your current tree, teach you how to use a website or program, or just conduct your research for you.
Being 75% Luxembourgish myself, I specialize in that area of research. Helping to build Lux trees is one of my favorite things to do!
