ABOUT ME
WHO AM I?
My name is Michelle Ruel and I have over 20 years of genealogical experience, both traditional and genetic. I am also a licensed Private Investigator. My passion is helping people solve their family mysteries. I believe everyone has a right to know where they come from.
Throughout my years of working with people, I have reunited many families. If you were adopted or are a birth parent searching for their biological child, I can help. If you have taken a DNA test and discovered a family secret or need help finding family using your DNA results, I can help. Please reach out and let me try to help you get the answers you are searching for.
​
I am located in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada but work almost exclusively virtually.

EXPERIENCE
I have worked with many individuals with a wide range of needs. Through genealogy, I know that families often have secrets. The situations surrounding these secrets are as varied and diverse as the people I have worked with.
Genetic genealogy has opened up a whole new world of possibilities - from family identification and reunification to solving cold-case crimes. If you have done a DNA test through one of the major testing companies, you may be overwhelmed by the results.
​
My years of experience have allowed me to become comfortable with the major online platforms for genetic genealogy, saving you hours, possibly even months or years of learning to maximize your results to the fullest to find who you are searching for.
