for 15 years
About
I am dedicated and experienced family historian in Latvia. I can search for and read vital records and other documents revealing your family history in German, Russian, and Latvian and translate them into English. Every fact in my reports is based on historical documentation—with the source reference—and all reports include digital copies of the original documents. I can also locate your ancestral homesteads on both historical and modern-day maps. Lūse Research is my project for more than ten years.
Research in Latvian Archives
I will collect, translate, and outline information about your ancestors, not only from church registers, but also from other sources, such as census lists, passports, house books, periodicals, and others. I work only in the Latvian archives and only for private customers.

"My family’s story was hearsay. There were rumors my father changed his identity before leaving Latvia at the end of WW II. There were stories of other family members and some unsubstantiated fragments telling of their lives in Latvia.
None of these were verified. That is when I contacted Agnese at luse-research. She did a remarkable job verifying many of the stories and providing documents showing my family’s history for the last 150 years."
