Jeanne Larzalere Bloom, CG, is a country gal who ended up settling in the big city of Chicago. As suggested by the title of her lecture, “You’re Not in Kansas Any More: Essential Resources and Strategies for Urban-Area Research,” Jeanne is a fifth-generation Kansan.
Although her ancestors were country folk and avoided big cities, Jeanne’s research specialties are Chicago and Cook County. She is passionate about big-city research. Jeanne’s philosophy is that urban-area research can be intimidating and challenging but it is not impossible.
Jeanne conducts projects for government agencies, attorneys, authors, newspapers, heir-search firms, professional genealogists, and family researchers in and outside of the United States. Her international clients are from Australia, Canada, Czech Republic, England, France, Ireland, Israel, Norway, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland.
On behalf of the Department of the Army and the Department of the Air Force, Jeanne searches and identifies family members of unaccounted-for servicemen from World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War.
Jeanne often encounters problems with challenging cases. For instance, there can be conflicting information about identity, dates, and places. Or there is no direct proof of a parent-child relationship.
“The Family Tapestry: Integrating Proof Arguments Into the Genealogical Narrative” is based on the techniques—a reasonably exhaustive search for information and thoughtful, rigorous analysis—Jeanne uses to address brick-wall problems.
