“I am in my seventies and have spent decades trying to find out who my father was. My mother’s family was very secretive, and if they knew who he was, they had pledged to never tell. I searched online, ancestry sites and talked to relatives. Family members helped me search, and we all came up empty handed. A family member recommended Bridgette LeFevre of Roots Detectives LLC, and she was able to determine who my father was and locate numerous relatives from his side of the family within three weeks.
I found out that I had a half-sister and a half-brother! Bridgette (with my permission) found them and was able to contact them to see if they wanted to communicate with me. Fortunately, they did, and I have learned so much about my father’s side of the family, including his health history. My half-sister and I have talked numerous times, and plan to meet soon! Bridgette is very resourceful and knowledgeable. She responds promptly to questions and requests and communicates openly to achieve mutual understanding. Bridgette has exceptional interpersonal skills and demonstrates good judgement when trying to connect family members.
I highly recommend Bridgette LeFevre of Roots Detectives LLC.”

“I met Ms. LeFevre at the local LDS Family Search Center, where she was a volunteer. I was looking for information regarding the man identified on my birth certificate as "father". She was very helpful in that preliminary search. However, after investigation on my own, I found that "father" was my mother's husband at the time, but not my biological father. It was after that discovery that, per my request, Ms. LeFevre stepped in to launch a further investigation, including DNA testing. She guided the search to identify my biological paternity and added 3 half sisters to my family as well as biographical details of several generations of "family". I could not have achieved these results without her expertise. In addition, she created a "life book" with documents and pictures of my growing family tree.”

“I am writing this review about Bridgette Le Fevre. My younger brother was killed in a car accident 27 years ago. He had two twin boys and then divorced. We tried to keep contact but were denied any privileges to contact or see them, including a restraining order. Many years have gone by and their grandmother is 96. Her heart has been broken for so many years! We have a family that loves them and wants to be a part of their lives. I contacted Bridgette LeFevre at Roots Detectives to see if she could possibly find them. She not only found them but made contact in such a professional way it made our experience positive on both sides. She was so personable with us all. Their grandmother and several family members have been able to talk with them. We are planning on meeting very soon. I owe her everything! She is the best in my book!”

"It's exciting. The material the genealogist is finding is the next best thing to a time machine."

Bridgette from Roots Detectives LLC was very professional and on point. She answered many of my questions about my family lineage and history, helping me to gain closure. She went above and beyond to find answers and even made contact with my long-lost relative. I highly recommend Roots Detectives LLC to anyone wondering about their own lineage and family history. Bridgette has positively changed my life forever, and I am sure she can do the same for someone else.
