An eighth-generation Canadian, Kathryn Lake Hogan, UE, B.A.,
PLCGS, has been researching both her ancestors and her husband's ancestors for
over twenty years. In 2007, she started her own genealogy company,
Looking4Ancestors, and began presenting at family history societies in Canada
and the United States. Kathryn was an early adopter of virtual presentations
and began presenting webinars as well.
Her passion is teaching others how to find their ancestors
in Canada.
Kathryn graduated from the National Institute for Genealogical Studies (2011) receiving her certificates in British, and Canadian Research, and Genealogical Methodology. She has served as a board member of The Association of Professional Genealogists, as the past Dominion Genealogist of The United Empire Loyalists' Association of Canada, as the virtual chat coordinator of Canadian studies for the National Institute, and is currently serving as a director on the board of The Ontario Genealogical Society. She is studying her Level 1 Accreditation with the International Commission for the Accreditation of Professional Genealogists.
Kathryn has taught Canadian genealogy at the Salt Lake
Institute of Genealogy (2018), and the Genealogical Research Institute of
Pittsburgh (2019). She is the host and presenter of the webinar series she
created in 2018, "Genealogy with a Canadian Twist."
Kathryn is the Course Coordinator and an instructor of
Course 2: Research Ontario and Quebec Ancestors.
Creative entrepreneur Tracey Arial has broken lots of
genealogical brick walls by writing the stories of her Canadian ancestors. As
an author, journalist and family historian, she loves researching the stories
of little-known people who had fascinating lives. Among her works are I
Volunteered: Canadian Vietnam Vets Remember, and Beads in a Necklace: Stories
from Genealogy Ensemble. She enjoys interviewing family historians and other
busy creators from all walks of life on the "Unapologetically
Canadian" podcast, and publishes regularly at GenealogyEnsemble.com.
Most of Tracey's ancestors came through Quebec on their North American journey, so she spends a lot of time combing through the archives, investigating land records and interpreting court cases.
She lives in St-Bruno-de-Montarville, Quebec, only 20 minutes from the Bibliothèque et Archives nationales du Québec in Montreal, and does contract work for AncestryProGenealogists, Trace, Legacy Tree, GEN-FIND Research Associates Inc., and Historikerkanzlei Genealogisch-Historische Recherchen GmbH in Austria. Johanne is the founder of the Québec Genealogical eSociety a non-profit virtual genealogical society launched at RootsTech 2018 providing members various tools to conduct their own Quebec research from the comfort of their homes.
Ken has given talks and workshops for various branches of the Ontario Ancestors, British Isles Family History Society of Greater Ottawa, and the Ottawa Public Library. His presentations generally focus on methodologies and providing the skills needed to help solve those brick wall problems. He has a genealogy related blog at Family Tree Knots where he shares the methodologies that he uses in his own research.
In addition to helping her private clients discover the
richness of their ancestral heritage, Janice does heir searching for provincial
Public Trustees, writes and lectures on a variety of genealogical topics.
Janice also did much of the genealogical research “behind
the scenes” for the CBC’s television series, Who Do You Think You Are?, which
aired from October 2007 to February 2008 and APTN's television series, All Our
Relations, airing Fall 2013.
Her work with the City of Toronto Museum Services helped
create a Book of Remembrance to commemorate the York militia men (and their
families) who died in the War of 1812.
Her books, Crime and Punishment in Upper Canada: A
Researcher’s Guide (2010), and York’s Sacrifice: Militia Casualties of the War
of 1812 (2012) were both published by the joint imprint of the Ontario
Genealogical Society and Dundurn Press.
Janice is a proud 8th-generation Canadian, with English,
German, Irish, Welsh and First Nations ancestry.
