SOBRE MIM
I have a Master's degree in History (Federal University of Santa Maria - UFSM, 2025), a Bachelor's degree in History from the same institution (2023), and am beginning my PhD in History at the same institution. I had three years of experience as a Scientific Initiation researcher, dedicating to Platinium History as a whole, mainly
focusing on the themes of politics, borders, migration, and immigration. I am passionate about research and dedicated to it. Responsible, understanding, and patient, I am not
afraid of bureaucratic work. Open to exploring new areas and roles, I believe I have the qualities to do so; and, above all, the will.

Hello, I'm Linda Henderson, a professional genealogist dedicated to helping clients solve genealogical questions—whether straightforward or highly complex—through careful research, documented evidence, and clear reporting.
Every family has a unique story—and every client comes with a different question. Whether you're searching for your biological family through DNA, researching your ancestors, identifying living heirs, preparing documentation for a Canadian citizenship by descent application, or creating a custom family history book for future generations, I provide professional genealogical research tailored to your specific goals.
What began as a lifelong passion for genealogy has grown into a full-time profession. Every conclusion is supported by careful analysis of historical records and documented evidence. I believe clients deserve to understand not only what was discovered, but how those conclusions were reached. My research reports are written in a clear, easy-to-understand format with complete source citations, making even complex research understandable through clear analysis and thorough documentation.
With eighteen years of genealogical research experience, areas of expertise include:
• Traditional genealogical research and family reconstruction
• DNA analysis for unknown parentage and adoption research through careful evaluation of DNA evidence and traditional genealogical research
• Living heir research for probate, estate, and real property matters
• Preparing documented evidence to support Canadian citizenship by descent applications
• Locating vital records, including birth, baptismal, marriage, and death records
• Building and documenting family trees from historical records, DNA evidence, and client information
• Breaking through longstanding genealogical brick walls
• Custom family history books combining historical research, narrative storytelling, photographs, and historical context
• Preparing professional research reports that adhere to the Genealogical Proof Standard (GPS), complete with source citations and clearly documented conclusions
• Organizing genealogical records and research for clients, attorneys, and family members
• Transcribing, abstracting, and extracting information from historical documents
Professional Affiliations:
• Association of Professional Genealogists
• National Genealogical Society
• The Alabama Genealogical Society
I enjoy helping clients discover, understand, and preserve the stories that make every family unique. Whether your goal is to solve a longstanding family mystery, document your ancestry, or preserve your family's story for future generations, I look forward to helping you discover your family's past.
