Hi, I'm Helen Giffear

I've been researching family history for 20 years, and Find My History is my one-person practice. I'm a member of the Association of Professional Genealogists and hold a certificate in genealogical methodology from the International Institute of Genealogical Studies, where I'm now completing the full program. I'm based in Clearfield, Utah, and work with families across the US.
How I research
What you get
  • Every fact sourced and cited.
  • Clear about what's proven, probable, or still unknown.
  • A printed report in a binder, with all permitted documents.
  • Your family tree and everything on a USB drive.
