Vital Records
Retrieval
“I was trying on my own to find documents to support my application for dual citizenship with Greece, but hit a roadblock. Aryn was especially helpful as she was able to find some documents relating not only to my grandfather but to his brothers as well. She knew all the places to look. With these documents, I feel confident in presenting a package to the Consulate. I learned a lot of interesting facts about my family during this process.”
—Lynn Sosa
I’m a Los Angeles-based genealogist specializing in document retrieval for dual citizenship applications. I work directly with immigration attorneys and citizenship consultants to locate the vital records, naturalization documents, and historical records their cases depend on — sourced from Los Angeles County, California state archives, and repositories.
When you refer a client to me, you get a researcher who understands what citizenship cases require, communicates clearly throughout the process, and delivers documents with proper citations — not just a scan and a shrug.
What I retrieve
I research and retrieve documents from Los Angeles County, California state archives, and Ohio repositories, including:
Vital Records
Naturalization Records & Declaration of Intention Papers
What People Say
“Aryn has been incredibly instrumental in helping us unravel a long lost family secret. Aryn is meticulous, thorough, and really knows her stuff. Going down that rabbit hole of the family tree can be daunting and what would take me months of searching, Aryn was able to put together the information for us in a fraction of the time. It’s been an incredible and moving experience learning more about our family and I so appreciate what she has done to simplify the experience for us and to connect us with family and our fascinating histories. I absolutely recommend her!”
