Rebecca Whitman Koford, CG
I am a California native but have lived in Maryland for 21 years now. I served in the Micronesia Guam Mission from 1993-1994 and married my husband, Brent, in 1995 in the Los Angeles Temple. I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Management from the University of Redlands, California. We have three wonderful children, a son and daughter at BYUI and our youngest daughter is still in high school.

I have been lecturing and taking genealogical clients since 2004. I am a graduate of ProGen 4, the 18-month online study groups that study Professional Genealogy by Elizabeth Shown MIlls. I have been the Administrator of the ProGen Study Groups since January 2015. I was certified by the Board of Certification for Genealogists in 2013 and am working on my first renewal this year. I will be the coordinator of Course 1 at the Institute for Genealogical and Historical Research (IGHR) in Athens, Georgia, starting in 2018. I speak at conferences locally and have spoken at the Maryland State Archives, NGS Conference, and for Legacy Webinars. I am have been very happy to be involved in the War of 1812 Preserve the Pensions project supported by FamilySearch. I volunteer as a board member of the Maryland Genealogical Society and at the Frederick Stake Family History Center

My specialty is Maryland and I have a lot of experience with New York and records of the National Archives and DAR in Washington, D.C. I'm very pleased to be a part of this mission.
