About
Kendra Gaede
Kendra’s passion for Canadian history started early, visiting museums and historic sites across Western Canada. A former journalist, she has flown with the RCAF Snowbirds and interviewed Canadian icons like Peter Gzowski and David Suzuki. Kendra’s interest in family history eventually led her to a fulfilling career in Canadian genealogy. Her expert knowledge stretches across Canada, from archival centres in Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, to historical resources in Ontario and Quebec, and special record collections on the Prairies and in British Columbia. Kendra enjoys helping others learn more about their family history, both as a professional genealogist with Marin Immigration Law, and as a dedicated volunteer with the Manitoba Genealogical Society.
