Do I have to purchase one of your packages or can you do more bespoke research?

Bespoke research is always available and even within the packages there is scope for changes as the client wishes. We will always discuss exactly what you would like at our first meeting / phone call/ whatsapp call.
Do you have a particular area in the UK that you are interested in and know more about?

We are based on the beautiful Yorkshire Coast and have a lot of Yorkshire ancestors so we are knowledgeable about Yorkshire in general and several specific areas. If your family came from here too and you are some distance away, we'd love to help you find out more!
How long does it take for you to complete a project?

It really depends on the project. A basic search can be as little as two weeks but a family history for three generations will take a lot longer. I will always be in regular contact with the client throughout keeping them up to date on progress.
I already do family history research myself but can you help when I'm stuck?

Yes, I can certainly try. I normally charge an hourly rate as specified on the website, but we can discuss with you your specific needs before we start.
Are all certificates (Birth, Death, marriage) included in the price?

Generally certificates are not included in the price unless specified as part of a package or special offer. We will always discuss the cost of purchasing certificates and limit purchases to those absolutely necessary.
I live in Australia and know my family came from England, can you help me research them?

Yes, of course. We can help with the basic research but if you would like can also provide some context as in information about the area that your ancestor was from if its somewhere you are not familiar with.

Testimonials

Sue compiled an extensive dossier on the history of my house going back to the 1870s, including fascinating info about the families who lived here. Her knowledge is immense and the record she has produced is a real treasure to be kept. For the history-curious out there, I recommend!
