Who Do You Think Your Ancestors Were?

Have you always wondered where Great Aunt Maud came from, or what Great Grandfather Cecil did for a living?

If the answer is yes but you've never had the time find out then I may be able to help.

An ideal Birthday or Anniversary present - you will get a Family Tree and also a Book Report. (See Example Book Report)

With over 6 years experience of researching Family History, I can trace your family from the present day back to 1837 anywhere in England and Wales with minimal information from you. (I will need your full names, exact date and place of birth and parents' full names including mother's maiden name). If you have ancestors in Hampshire, Wiltshire, Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire or Staffordshire, I can take you back even further than 1837.

I regularly visit the Local Record Offices and Family History centres as well as the National Archives at Kew.

I can research your family using:

  • Census (1841-1911)
  • Birth, Marriage and Death Records and Certificates
  • Directories
  • Parish Registers
  • Wills
  • Land Records
  • Military records especially World War I
  • Metropolitan Police Records
Charges : £12 per hour plus the cost of certificates and travel expenses

Note : I cannot guarantee I will always be able find something as sometimes the historical records no longer exist. Also if your ancestors have a common name such as Smith or Jones or Baker identification may prove tricky.
