Hi 🖐 I am Coni — and if you’re wondering what got me here, it’s a story that starts with a question and never really ends.

I am a Native American genealogist with 30+ years in the field, and a Barkhamsted Lighthouse descendant who has traced over 70,000+ people. My research has touched all major parts of early American history from the 1600s to the 1800s — and through it all, I’ve learned that we are all related in one form or another.

I have traveled extensively to NY, CT, RI, MI, IN & MA, along with Block Island, on my quest to find my roots. I am also the head Genealogist for the tribe of Barkhamsted Lighthouse Village in Barkhamsted, Connecticut — and a true descendant of this line.

I work closely with archaeologists, professors, historians, historical societies, genealogists, family members, and other researchers. I am the author of 12+ research books, plus a children’s book and a poetry book.

I am also the developer and owner of the Heirloomie app, and I run Ever Widening Circle research — bringing family history into the hands of the next generation.

I am a professional, but it is an honor to have met all these ancestors. I’m not much of a writer — but great at researching — so excuse any mistakes. I welcome ANY corrections or help!

Everything I have gathered, proven, and built is being handed down to the next generation — to my grandchildren, to descendants, and to all who come after. Come explore with me — visit my Book Nook and discover the stories waiting for you.

☕ Love my research? You can tip me on Venmo to help keep the ancestors’ stories coming — every little bit fuels more digging, more records, and more stories shared. Just reach out via the contact form and I’ll share my Venmo handle. Thank you, friend!

About the seal on my photos: You’ll notice my Ever Widening Circle seal resting lightly on the photos throughout this site — faded, like a pendant, never meant to take away from the image. It’s there for one reason: protection. After 30+ years of sharing my research, I’ve learned that photos travel. This little seal means that wherever the image goes, my name goes with it.

A note on rights and credit: The photographs, documents, and records shared here come from many hands across many years — family members, fellow researchers, archives, museums, and friends, shared with me mostly with kind permission. There are too many generous contributors to name them all, but every image is sourced as best as I possibly can. If you see your family’s photo here and hold the rights to it, please use the form below — credit matters to me, and I’ll make it right.
