Individual searches

We search for births, marriages and deaths, census returns and electoral registers. Then we go way beyond, into military records, newspapers, court archives, trade records, church sermons - anything with a hint to your ancestor's life story.

If you have a 'lost' family member, or are unsure if someone belongs in your tree, we can help.

Official records

We start with the basic records of births, deaths and marriages, and glean every bit of information that we can. We cross-check everything and follow every lead.

Special records

We then search the archives for anything closely related to your ancestor, such as their school records, military service records, trade records, newspaper reports and even maps.

Reports

From this information we build a life story, from birth to death, and even afterwards, through wills and probate records. We can follow trails through German, French and Italian records; decider jargon and abbreviations; analyse photos for clues; cross check old and modern maps for place name changes - this is our passion.
