Tina Post

My interest in genealogy began as a youngster. I began my family research in 1998 by interviewing older relatives and visiting the nearby National Archives facility, Albany County Hall of Records and Family History Center reviewing microfilm and my grandparents' original Naturalization Papers. My husband's family has deep roots in the U.S. I researched his lineage to his successful acceptance into the Sons of the American Revolution society. The Boston University Genealogy Research program in 2017 refined my skills.

I am a volunteer genealogist for the NYS Library, Capital District Genealogical Society past Program Co-Chair (2019-2021) and the 2021 virtual Conference Co-Chair.  I am often at the NYS Library and NYS Archives.

I conduct research online at a variety of sources including popular and lesser known websites. Often a visit to a town hall, historical society, library, archive or other repository results in the handling of 18th and 19th century deeds, probate and vital records. Where vital records never existed, burned in a fire or were lost, I make every effort to answer a client's question. I provide a complete written report of findings.

Review your tree, consult on your brickwalls, pull probate, deeds, vital records at town, city and county offices, and lineage applications.
