Family Orchard LLC was established by John F. Suggs in order to apply his expertise in genetic analysis, forensic research and investigation to the field of genetic genealogy where he assists “persons of unknown parentage” such as adult adoptees, sperm and egg donor’s adult children and others searching for their biological roots. In addition, using the same investigative methods, he has recently expanded his work portfolio to include assisting members of Law Enforcement in the solving of criminal cold cases. John is a pioneer in forensic and genetic genealogy, with over a dozen years of experience in finding and reuniting lost loved ones. John holds a BA in Political Science from Loyola Marymount University, an MS in Management and Systems from New York University and an MBA from Fordham University. His NYU Master’s Thesis was entitled: “Genetic Testing and Privacy: The Role of Anonymous Genetic Testing and Information Technology.”
