Elizabeth (Liz) Walker, B.A., was born in Evansville, Indiana and raised in St. Louis, Missouri. She lived in Colorado for several years and has been in the Tulsa, Oklahoma area (former Indian Territory) since 1987. During the late 1980's and 90's when her two youngest children were small, she was a freelance writer specializing in family issues. One particular family issue that has always interested her is, family history. It's an obsession that became a profession. She formerly wrote a column on Indian Territory Genealogy for the In-Depth Genealogist, a digital magazine. She retired as Library Associate at the Tulsa City County Library Genealogy Center in 2019, where she worked for almost 20 years. In addition to assisting patrons in their ancestor research, Liz conducted classes at the Genealogy Center on a regular basis. She currently accepts clients and is available to speak at local genealogical societies. She completed the National Genealogical Society (NGS) Home Study Course in 2005 and was the 2007 recipient of the Richard S. Lackey Memorial, National Institute on Genealogical Research (NIGR) Scholarship, to study at the National Archives. She is a member of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) with two documented ancestors.
