Family history research for Private Individuals

Families are complicated: we can help with tracing lost members of your family or building your family tree:

We offer three packages aimed at providing professional and accurate genealogical research to suit your budget:

Starter Tree

This package provides an overview of your family history and is ideal if you have a limited budget. The research centres around a single couple, whether that be you, your parents or grandparents, and provides information on up to four generations of the family, typically going back to the early 1800s. Documentation includes (where found):

• census entries;
• parish records;
• military records;
• migration records;
• originals of up to five documents such as Wills or certificates.

Pedigree package

This package details all eight great grandparents from the starting person normally going back to the late 18th Century. The report provides information regarding their spouses, their occupations and their addresses all placed within an historical context. Documentation includes (where found):

• census entries;
• parish records;
• military records;
• migration records;
• originals of up to twenty documents such as Wills or certificates.

Extended Research

One surname is traced back at least four generations from the starting person, typically going back to the late 18th Century. The research includes information regarding spouses, their addresses, their occupations, and their siblings and are placed in an historical context. Documentation includes (where found):

• census entries;
• parish records;
• military records;
• migration records;
• originals of up to thirty documents such as Wills or certificates.

All research reports are exhibited in a presentation folder with the relevant family trees and original documentation. We also offer various alternative presentation methods including a bespoke hard back book, an online family tree which can be shared with your family, canvasses and posters for framing.

Record Office searching

Are you researching your own family history and have uncovered relatives in Norfolk but are too far away to search for the records in person? Let us do the legwork for you. Due to our location, we are perfectly placed to carry out your research for you in the Norfolk Record Office or any village or town in Norfolk including parish records and churchyards.

Please contact us to discuss your requirements.

Gifts & Gift Vouchers

Commissioning a genealogist to research a loved one’s family history is an ideal gift for that special occasion such as Mother’s Day, a special birthday or Christmas. If you are contemplating presenting such a wonderful gift, we would ask that you give us plenty of time to complete our research in time for the big day, ideally a minimum of three months.

Alternatively, if you would prefer to buy a gift voucher for someone, we can provide these in denominations of £50 which can be used towards the cost of one of our family research packages as shown above. Please use the Paypal button below, and choose the appropriate quantity of £50 vouchers.
