"The Art of African American Vintage Genealogy, what a great publication! Thank you for sharing your expertise with us. I believe that all guides are not alike. For me a guide is only worthy of its existence if it is user friendly and that you can actually follow it to reach your desired outcome. This is what I believe I have found with your ebook. I actually want to tackle working on my genealogy."

"My experience with AAVG Genealogy Workshop: Intro + Maps, Books, Newspapers was incredible! From the comfort of my own office I was able to absorb the spirit of a true facilitator; gained knowledge about sites that I did not know existed and found out how to truly make good use of newspaper articles. I went away from this workshop inspired to work harder and truly explore those chinks in my wall to hopefully be able to break through soon."

Testimonial from Nicole O'Dell, Brooklyn, NY

"Ms. Keeton was professional and personable in her service. That is an important combination in genealogical research. We are searching for people, family members. It doesn't get more personal than that. However, it is a business that has led to warnings of abuse due to the non-professionalism by some which could lead to a costly venture with little production. Trust in one's professionalism becomes very important here. Additionally, unlike some companies, genealogy and other industries, who host introductions but are stingy when offering the availability of resources to force clients to need their services, she was very generous in sharing a lot of tools, enabling me to continue the search myself if I choose, instead of forcing me to need her services due to my lack of information about resources available. Ms. Keeton has given me the reasons I need to continue working with her to find my family."
