"Can't I just research myself using online resources and common sense?"

Genealogy and history expertise is required to complete the daunting task of Black American genealogy.  Further, with something so important as our heritage, it is imperative that the research is accurate and professional.  Would you (even if you are a physician) perform surgery on yourself based upon some medical reference websites?  No, you would go to a physician who specializes in your health concern!  Similarly, we at USA Griot, LLC specialize in Black American genealogy-all regions and time periods.  Our company also has experts in European and White American genealogy as well as Native American specialists.

"Where in Africa did my ancestors come from?"

Our company will use proven genealogical methods to answer this question and provide you with a report that discusses your ancestral ethnic group and country.  Also, we will put the customer in touch with an association of immigrant members of your ancestral tribe to facilitate learning more about your people.  In addition, with proper data, we can determine who captured your ancestor, the port the relative left from on the coast of Africa, the port arrived at in this country (or elsewhere), and possible slave ships he or she came on.  This service is more than an overnight test result, we seek to heal the wounds of the past by uncovering culture, language, food, history, and ,most importantly, modern people from your ancestral ethnic group who can make a trip to your ancestral homeland a return home and not a touching (yet unfulfilling) tour.
