Meet the Founder
Adam Jacoby Paul
Chief Researcher
“I have always seen genealogy as a gateway for People of Color to access long lost, and often withheld information about their familial past in the Western hemisphere. It is my mission to make history more accessible, in order to allow future generations a fuller and more accurate narrative.”
