About

From a young age I have always had an interest in history, especially military and pioneer history. My interest in military history stems from the fact that many of my ancestors have served, including both my parents. It is because of this love of history and family, I decided to pursue a career in history and genealogical research. 

 

This passion led me​ to establish my own business, Griffin Genealogical Research Services in 2021. I specialize in Commonwealth military record research, with a subspeciality of Canadian records. In addition to my work as a genealogist and historical researcher, I am an author/writer. I mainly write about Canadian military history and armed conflict. 

​

On the 8th of March 2025, I was a recipient of the King Charles III Coronation Medal for my work preserving local military history and my work with the Royal Canadian Legion.
