Historian-Led Genealogical Research You Can Trust.

AncestorMonth combines professional historical training, disciplined research methodology, and modern DNA analysis to uncover accurate, verifiable family history.

Research Methodology

AncestorMonth follows a structured, evidence-based research process grounded in professional historical standards.

Every family member included in a research project is developed through careful review and confirmation using multiple independent sources. Whenever possible, research is based on primary source documentation, including:

  • U.S. and international census records

  • Birth, marriage, and death records

  • Cemetery, gravestone, and burial records

  • Residential and academic directories

  • Land and property records

  • Military service and pension records

  • Contemporary newspaper accounts and obituaries

  • Legal, government, and court records

  • Immigration and naturalization records

  • Voter and civic registration records

Client-provided information is used as a starting point but is not treated as verified until supported by reliable documentation.

Modern Research and DNA Integration

In addition to traditional genealogical research, AncestorMonth integrates modern DNA analysis to strengthen and clarify family connections.

By combining documentary research with DNA match interpretation, we are able to:

  • Confirm biological relationships

  • Identify previously unknown family connections

  • Resolve conflicting or incomplete records

  • Support forensic genealogy inquiries

All DNA-related work is conducted with client authorization and handled with strict attention to privacy and accuracy.

Our Research Goal

The goal of AncestorMonth is not simply to build a family tree—but to build a reliable, documented family history.

We focus on:

  • Accuracy over speed alone

  • Evidence over assumption

  • Clarity over complexity

  • Meaningful family connection over raw data collection

Every project is designed to give clients a clear, trustworthy understanding of their family origins and relationships.
