Learning about your ancestors can be a truly rewarding experience, but sometimes it can be frustrating. Whether you need help in finding that elusive ancestor or a quick record search, I can help.
Whatever your objective, I am happy to help. I can trace one line of your ancestry or multiple ones; direct ancestors or entire families. The choice is yours. But please note, while I cannot promise positive results, I can guarantee that I will search diligently and that all of the information provided will be accurate and thoroughly documented.
The following services are available:

In some cases, paying by the hour may be a more suitable option. I charge $25 per hour plus expenses such as photocopying, postage and in some cases mileage.
