20TH & 21ST CENTURY GENEALOGICAL RESEARCH

20th Century research is especially challenging due to restrictive vital records laws. Birth and all but the oldest death certificates are closed records in Georgia to all but immediate family unless court ordered. Georgia did not keep statewide death records until 1919 with the exception of several large cities. I do kinship and probate research, locating living people, cemetery law compliance research, military reparation research, and more.

Confidentuality of personal information is respected.
