• Family History Research

The Genealogy Guru sprang from Rebecca's own personal fascination with family history. After she discovered her great grandfather's WWI draft card and solved a 100-year-old mystery from his past, she was hooked. Rebecca delights in the journey: uncovering the people, places and events that have led up to the people we are today. With a background in professional photography and publishing, she has found her calling in helping you unlock the secrets of your past and creating beautiful presentations for your family. . . for all the generations to come. Rebecca is the 5th cousin 8 times removed of President George Washington, a member of the Professional Genealogists of America and eager to help you answer the question, "Who do you think YOU are?"
