DNA Answers. Family Connections. A Clear Path Forward.
At Faith Walk Genealogy, I help individuals and families use DNA analysis and family history research to better understand biological relationships. You do not need to know much about genealogy to get started. I will guide you through the process with care, clarity, and professionalism.
Support for Answers That Records Alone May Not Reveal
If you are searching for a birth parent, trying to identify an unknown person, or feeling overwhelmed by DNA matches and family questions, you are not alone. Faith Walk Genealogy combines DNA analysis, family mapping from DNA matches, and traditional genealogical research to help uncover biological connections with respect and sensitivity.

All terms are discussed during your consultation and outlined clearly in your service agreement.

During this conversation, we will review what you already know, discuss available records and DNA results (if applicable), and talk through possible next steps. You’ll leave with a clearer understanding of your options and whether professional genealogical or genetic genealogy services are the right fit for your needs.
