Testimonials
"Kim made the journey of connecting with my ancestors so simple. Not only did she gather information on my family but she gave them a voice to tell their story while carefully weaving each generation into the next. By including copies of birth, marriage and death certificates she has helped track the movement of my family through centuries and has helped me establish and better understand potential genetic health risks. Through Kim's diligent work, I learned that my Great Grandfather had been the editor and owner of the first francophone newspaper in the maritime provinces in the late 1870s. She uncovered the roots of his journalistic calling as well as his service and deep devotion to the Acadian people of that time and the legacy that he left behind. She works meticulously to fact check and reference her findings. She places such care and importance on each piece of family history that you'd swear she's charting her own family's lineage." Renee R. (Ottawa, Ontario)
"Kim Kujawski, The French-Canadian Genealogist, was a tremendous help in transcribing and translating several documents for me, including a marriage contract, several parish entries and two French death certificates. She helped clarify and answer the many questions I had while researching a particular elusive ancestor. Kim went above and beyond by locating the death records of an ancestor - finding him in a French military hospital in Madrid, thereby solving the mystery of what happened to him when he disappeared from the Montreal area around 1791. Her fees were reasonable for the work performed, which was timely and extremely professional. I will definitely reach out to her again for future help in my French Canadian genealogy research." Kristin H. (Libertyville, Illinois)
"The services I received from Kim were done VERY quickly and most professionally executed. I had sent the document I wanted translated to another 'internationally famous' transcription/translation service at the same time I sent it to her. I just got it back today and it pales in comparison to the fluidity and presentation of Kim's work. I would highly recommend The French-Canadian Genealogist for transcriptions, translations, and family research. Merci!!" Michael H. (Abingdon, Virginia)
