LaDonna Garner’s venture into family history began with a junior high assignment on her family origins that only raised more questions than answers. With few elders available for advice, the quest for solving the family mysteries set the course for a lifetime of research, brick walls, and interesting discoveries. Decades later, through college, career changes, and raising a family, her genealogy hobby was always present. Today, that hobby has evolved into a career she greatly enjoys — helping others discover their family curiosities.
Garner is an active member of numerous genealogical and historical societies in leadership and volunteer roles. She teaches workshops and lectures on family history methodology with patience and brings awareness to historic preservation concerns. One may assume her passion for cemetery and community preservation are current ventures. Still, it goes back to her teen years sitting beneath a tree in the silence of a burial ground reading a book.
LaDonna has an M.A. in Historic Preservation from Goucher College and an A.A.S Veterinary Tech. She resides in Southeast Missouri with her husband and a farm of heritage animals.
