Laura Cosgrove Lorenzana

ProGen Member Overview

As a Consulting Archivist, I learned the importance of primary materials and their availability to researchers. The materials you need may not be where you expect to find them, when you need them. After leaving the Archives' world in 2019, I stepped into the world of Forensic Engineering, but have not lost my love of genealogical research or for solid, records-based findings. While I am not currently taking clients, I can be a resource for locating records. Just ask!
