Meet Carol, Project Manager for Legacy Tree Genealogists

Meet Carol, one of Legacy Tree Genealogists talented project managers!

Genealogy has been a passion of Carol Genung’s for a long time. The genealogy bug first bit her when she was in junior high school and her dad’s aunt shared copies of the family tree she had researched. Carol diligently added the branches that she could at the time. Her passion was reignited a number of years later when she and her husband visited his aunt who had the family bible with entries back to the late 1800s. Carol has not stopped researching since.

Carol earned a bachelor’s degree with a double major in computer science and business administration. She is a former IT professional, who decided to follow her passion a decade ago and launch a new career as a professional genealogist. She has loved every minute of it and has not looked back.

As a professional genealogist, Carol has researched, written, and lectured on a variety of genealogy topics. Helping others throughout their genealogy journeys has become one of her greatest passions. She has over 30 years of genealogical experience and holds a Certificate in Genealogical Research from Boston University. Carol is also a graduate of the 18-month Professional Genealogy Study Program (ProGen) and has earned many certificates from advanced institute courses.

When not working on genealogy, Carol likes to read, garden, and travel. She has a grown son and daughter, and lives near Milwaukee, Wisconsin, with her husband, 2 dogs, and cat.
