Start Here

If you're new to narrative genealogy, begin with:

Beyond the Names: An Introduction to Narrative Genealogy and The Storyfinders Framework

Version 2 release July 20, 2026.

Inside the updated guide, you'll learn:

  • Why records only tell us what happened

  • How better questions uncover better stories

  • Why historical context changes everything

  • The philosophy behind The Storyfinders Framework

This guide is still completely free because I believe everyone should have a place to begin.


Coming Soon

The Legacy Lore Storytelling Framework™ is continuing to grow.

Future resources will include:

  • The Storyfinders Workbook

    • Guided exercises to help identify story-worthy ancestors and uncover narrative clues hidden within your research.

    • Releasing August 2026

  • Beyond the Names Workshop

    • A step-by-step workshop for transforming family history research into meaningful narratives.
