About

Founded by Anna Phillips in 2010, Uncovered Roots began as a traditional genealogy service dedicated to helping individuals discover and preserve their family history. In 2022, the company expanded its offerings to include genetic and investigative genetic genealogy, integrating advanced DNA analysis into its research methodology.
Anna brings extensive experience to the field and currently volunteers with a local organization that collaborates with law enforcement on cold cases. Through investigative genetic genealogy, she has played a key role on teams that have generated leads contributing to the resolution of several cases. Additionally, she serves as a search angel, offering compassionate, DNA-based support to individuals seeking to identify biological parents and relatives—often with remarkable success.
At Uncovered Roots, we are committed to delivering thorough, ethical, and evidence-based research. Whether assisting in family history discovery or contributing to modern investigations, our goal is to provide clients with accurate answers and meaningful connections.
