We are delighted to announce that Lorraine Whale has joined the IHGS Tutorial team.

Lorraine is a graduate of the Institute who gained the Higher Certificate in 2020 and the Diploma in Genealogy the following year. Her passion for family history was sparked in the early 2000s while looking through old family photos with her grandmother. What began as a personal journey to uncover her own ancestry soon turned into a fascination with genealogy, leading her to help others trace their own family history.
After more than 25 years in Human Resources Management, Lorraine made a career change to become a professional genealogist and established her own business providing family history and house history research.
She is currently the Secretary of the Board of Assessors for the Association of Genealogists and Researchers in Archives (AGRA).
Welcome to the team from all at IHGS.
