Naomi Leon is a researcher and genealogist at Research Roots, an independent research company based in Brighton. After graduating from Cambridge with an MA in History, Naomi spent several years working with authors and filmmakers at a number of London literary, film and television agencies.

Having traced her own family history from 17th century agricultural labourers in Lincolnshire to Jewish migrant peasants in 18th century Poland, Naomi founded Research Roots to pursue her passion for genealogy and other research, and give others the benefit of her enthusiasm and expertise. She works with a wide range of records and sources, local and international archives, libraries and museums, and has a particular interest in Jewish genealogy.
