Why choose cinderrose genealogy?
CinderRose Genealogy isn’t a factory-style research service. It’s personal, place-rooted, and built on decades of lived experience in the Appalachian tri-state region. My work blends careful documentation with the storytelling traditions of the mountains, helping you understand not just who your ancestors were, but how they lived, moved, and belonged to the land.
Who are our services for?
CinderRose Genealogy is designed for anyone who wants to understand where they come from — whether they’re just beginning or deep into the search. Perfect for beginners who feel overwhelmed, intermediate researchers needing help interpreting records, and advanced researchers who’ve hit a brick wall or need regional expertise in Kentucky, West Virginia, or Ohio. We also cater to families with Appalachian roots, where local knowledge makes all the difference.
What should you do next?
After you explore my services, the best next step is to reach out with your questions or goals. Every family story is different, and a quick conversation helps me understand what you’re hoping to discover. Whether you want to book a consultation, ask about a specific ancestor, or see examples of past work, I’m here to guide you toward the right path for your research.
