Every family has a story worth finding — and sometimes you need a seasoned researcher in your corner to find it.
I’m Sue McNelly, an Accredited Genealogist (AG®) based near Tucson, Arizona, with deep expertise in England, the Isle of Man, and South Africa, as well as experience researching locations across the U.S., Australia, and beyond. I work with clients who have hit brick walls, can’t find that elusive ancestor, or simply don’t know where to start. My job is to find answers to all sorts of family history questions — and to help you discover the stories behind the names.
In addition to client research, I’m employed as an Assistant Family History Program Director and Adjunct Instructor at the university level, and I love bringing family history research to life as a speaker at genealogical societies and conferences.
