Welcome to The Hidden Branch!
We are the new generation of genealogists who grew up in the digital age.
We advocate for Gen Z researchers (born from 1995 to 2010) in the field of genealogy.
We publish articles, podcasts, and videos on research skills, topics, and more in order to give a bigger voice to the Gen Z genealogists in the field, as well as help others further their education in genealogy.
