Unfortunately, no. I'm fascinated by genealogy and have learned some great information in my research, but I'm more of an armchair genealogist than a professional. I highly recommend contacting your nearest genealogy library or local library for contacts regarding genealogists. If you want to do it yourself, I recommend starting at the National Archives website for some great tips and information. https://www.archives.gov/research/genealogy
