Virtual One-on-One Consultations

Want to get additional support from our expert staff on your ancestry journey? The Center for Family History team can point you to online and brick-and-mortar archives, repositories, and specialist collections that hold invaluable African American records and documents that documented the lives of enslaved people as well as free people of color. The team will also point you to digital and physical resources and records you may not be aware of – or thought of – to help you break through a research brick wall.

Our services provide you with deeper insight into how to research and where to look for records. Unfortunately, we are currently unable to provide the following types of research support:

• On-site/face-to-face one-on-one consultations
• Creating online family trees – or adding information and ancestors to existing family trees
• Creating accounts on popular family tree-building websites (We can certainly explain how to do this!)

Please reserve your 45-minute virtual one-on-one consultation by clicking the button below.

Consultation Hours: Monday-Friday from 10 AM to 4 PM Eastern
