People develop a passion for finding their relatives for many reasons; some have been separated from their siblings or parents against their will, while others are simply curious about their family roots. In my family, the first searches for relatives were initiated by Manea Judson in the 20th century. She was born in the city of Kirov in western Russia. In 1920, she migrated to England with her brother but then she lost contact with her relatives. It can be said that trying to find a missing family member is like looking for a needle in a haystack. In particular, when no information is available, searches can take many years.
Manea began looking for her brothers, sisters and other living relatives in 1977 during the Cold War era. Her main strategy involved sending photos to the Red Cross, requesting information about her missing family members. The Red Cross International Tracing Service has helped reconnect families all around the world who have been separated by migration, armed conflict, war or disaster. This service also helped Manea and she was able to restore her family ties and successfully maintain contact with her relatives.
Rudolph began his genealogical research in 1989. At that time, he was living in St. Petersburg, Russia. He knew that some of his relatives had moved to England in 1920, and he endeavoured to find them so he could discover more about his family background.
Rudolph searched the archives, requested information, studied biographical sketches, searched through the Red Cross, and hired translators to study information in foreign languages. For many years, he worked in different countries such as Russia, Germany, the USA and England.
For a long time, Rudolph gathered information piece by piece. His search took approximately 13 years but he came a long way in that time. He managed to find his living relatives in England, meet with them and then keep in touch. After his successful search, and having gained more experience, Rudolph began to assist other people in their search for family members so they could learn about their ancestors. He transformed his unique hobby into a professional service. With just a few details, he could help people locate unknown or missing relatives or family members after they had migrated to another country.
I have been engaged in genealogy for more than 15 years. I started with biographies of my relatives, using different genealogical sources. I would spend hours searching the internet and studying archives. I also visited libraries and read biographical reference books in an effort to learn more about my family. Then, I decided to open my own freelance professional genealogist practice.
I have conducted genealogical research in a number of countries and time periods while working in Russia, Ukraine, China and the USA. I offer a full range of services, from tracing family trees as far back as possible and looking for living relatives to interpreting DNA test results and studying people’s origins.
From generation to generation, my family passed down their experience and desire to look for relatives and help other people uncover their family background. My passion for genealogy began in 2008. Rudolph transferred his knowledge to me and inspired me to reveal not only my own history but also the history of those around me. Thanks to my curiosity, concentration and attention to detail, I continued to develop the so-called ‘family business’, improving my genealogical skills and helping other people. Today, my work is based on the experience of generations for over three decades.
Over the years, we have been able to trace our ancestors back several generations. We have created a genealogical tree of our family, comprising thousands of people. Thanks to our family’s experience, the knowledge that has been passed down from generation to generation and our strong desire, we have managed to paint a vivid picture of our history.
Оne of the most important tools used by professional genealogists and the reasons for DNA testing. Years of studies and investigation helped me create a full family tree that now contains more than 5 thousand persons. In my researches I visited many archives and libraries and often combined my work with advanced DNA testing. Learn more about one of the most important tools used by professional genealogists and the reasons for DNA testing.
My mission is to give people the key to discovering their rich and deep family history so they can understand more about their ancestors. Since 1989, my family has completed thousands of global genealogy searches with a 98% success rate. I enjoy helping people uncover their roots and heritage. I strive to ensure that my professional genealogy service is as quick and efficient as possible. The entire process is absolutely transparent. Moreover, I have considerable expertise in specialist research areas and this will enable me to achieve your personal goals.
In order to maximise the research opportunities, I combine a wide range of methodologies and tools. I understand how to effectively use online records and databases. I also incorporate DNA test results into my genealogical projects. I use mathematical models to calculate a probability. I regularly search through libraries, courthouse records, archives, newspapers, birth and death certificates, military records, marriage licences, divorce records, wills and other vital records.
I have agents all around the world so I can access a vast array of important records. I cooperate with a variety of experts; for example, I collaborate with graphologists in order to decipher texts, including those in Hungarian, Polish, Ukrainian, Yiddish and Hebrew, and find explanations. Regardless of your ancestors’ background, I will be able to help you learn more about your family.

I actively utilise archives in New York, North America and across the globe. One of my most important resources as a professional genealogist is the records collection in the Family History Library in Salt Lake City, Utah, USA. In addition, various databases with genealogical records from all four corners of the world help support my ancestry research.
