Looking for details of your ancestors or other persons in Alaska, Idaho, Oregon, and Washington?

I am a professional genealogist providing look-up services to genealogists and family historians.

Based in Seattle, Washington, United States, I focus on providing genealogy research services for an international client base, including attorneys, hobbyists, and others. I’ve been working with genealogy and family history for about 30 years.

Some of the resources I use include newspapers, city directories, and archival materials. I have visited the National Archives and Records Administration site at Sand Point, Seattle, Washington, and the University of Washington to use their special collections.

My publications

A Brief Introduction to the Maling Family

Brief Genealogy of the Maling Family
