Dr. Carol P. McCoy, President of Find-Your-Roots and former president of the Maine Genealogical Society, has been tracing her family history for over 30 years. She has been helping others discover their roots for over fifteen years. With each new case, Dr. McCoy learns more about researching families in different eras and areas.

Our Mission

Every family is unique.
Dr. McCoy's mission is to help people discover:

  • Where did I come from?
  • Who are my kin?
  • What makes my family special?

In so doing they will gain a deeper understanding of their family stories, connect with kin, and create a family treasure to share.
