Janet Rinardo Travis and Lynette Caton Bryan are long-time friends, coworkers, and certified Investigative Genetic Genealogists. Since 2007, they've combined their shared passion for family history and justice to help others uncover their roots.
Janet Rinardo Travis
Janet brings valuable experience from her background in medical laboratories, particularly in the pathology department. She assisted several pathologists with grossing tissue, preparing and labeling specimens, maintaining detailed records, and operating specialized lab equipment. In addition, she spent 12 years at Metro Optics Laboratory, where she worked in the lab and was later promoted to Office Manager.
Lynette Caton Bryan
Lynette’s interest in forensics, law enforcement and genealogy began in elementary school. She followed her passion into high school and attended High School for Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice before transferring to her home school to graduate early. Lynette took a variety of social science and criminal courses while in college as well. Her genetic genealogy interests go hand in hand with her love of criminal justice.
“Our passion for genealogy deepened after joining Ancestry and using DNA tests to explore our own family trees. As we uncovered our personal histories, we gained extensive knowledge in genetic genealogy and now use that expertise to help adoptees, foundlings, and individuals of unknown parentage find their biological families.”
