We research for our clients as if we are researching our own families.  We treat our clients as we would expect to be treated as clients ourselves.

We are continuously updating this site, so please check back soon for the latest information and/or changes.

About Us

 

We have over 18 years of research experience.  We have extensive hands-on experience at actual repositories, as well as years of internet/computer knowledge.  We also have research experience in multiple states.

 

We are currently enrolled in an American Record Genealogy course through the University of Toronto.

We are Mark Jordan and Alfreda Potrafke; founders of Celtic Giraffe Research, located in south-central Pennsylvania. We specialize in family history research, record research, and cemetery research.

We started our company in 2007 because of our passion and experience for doing family history research.

Mark has been doing family history research for about eight years; with extensive family and record research experience with on-line research, as well as hands-on research in Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Kentucky.

Alfreda has been doing family history research for about eleven years; with extensive hands-on family and record research experience in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Kentucky, and West Virginia; as well as on-line research experience.

We are currently enrolled in the University of Toronto genealogy course, and will be completing it by the end of this year.

We both have extensive experience in cemetery research in Pennsylvania, Ohio and Kentucky also.  We enjoy what we do and have made this our life-long goal.  As much as we love researching our own families, we also take pride in helping others with their family history research as well.  It’s the thrill of the hunt that is so exciting to us and keeps us wanting to do more!
