About

Professional genetic genealogy services specializing in adoption searches, unknown parentage cases, and heir identification using DNA evidence combined with traditional genealogical research.

The Commonalities Project focuses on finding unknown family members and connections through genetic genealogy, taking on complex identification cases when other methods have failed. Services include adoption and unknown parentage research, non-paternal event (NPE) investigation, estate and legal services for heir identification, and family history reconstruction. The team brings more than 20 years of genealogy research experience with concentration in Volga German research and has created over 6,000 profiles with immigration and census sourcing. They adhere to the Genealogical Proof Standard and provide comprehensive written reports with full documentation and source citations.
