Introduction
πΏIntroduction
πΏResearching your family history can feel overwhelming β especially when records are missing, names change, or stories don't match the documents. I help you trace, understand and preserve your family history with care, accuracy and respect. You donβt need documents or certainty β just one name.πΏ
Understanding our Family History
β¨Why Our Stories Matter
π Your Family Story Is Unlike Anyone Elseβs
π± What Is a Family Tree?
Family history isnβt just about names and dates β itβs connection.
Itβs the moment you realise your great-grandmother lived just a few streets away from where you stand now.
Itβs discovering the origin of a surname youβve carried your whole life.

Family history isnβt just about names and dates β itβs connection.
Itβs the moment you realise your great-grandmother lived just a few streets away from where you stand now.
Itβs discovering the origin of a surname youβve carried your whole life.
Itβs learning that someone, generations before you, made a choice β and that choice shaped the life youβre living today.
Researching your ancestry helps us:
π― understand where we come from
π honour those who came before us
πΏ preserve stories before they fade
Every family has someone who wonders.
And thatβs usually where the journey begins.

π± What Is a Family Tree?
A family tree is a visual map of your ancestry β showing how each generation links to the next.
It can include:
β names
β dates
β places lived
β occupations
β relationships
β photographs and records (where available)
But a family tree is more than a chart β itβs a timeline, a story, and sometimes a rediscovery of forgotten connections.

But a family tree is more than a chart β itβs a timeline, a story, and sometimes a rediscovery of forgotten connections.
Some people begin with the first generation.
Others start with a question.
Most begin with curiosity.
Where you begin doesnβt matter β what matters is that you do.

π Your Family Story Is Unlike Anyone Elseβs
Every family has:
β¨ a traveller
β¨ a survivor
β¨ a story keeper
β¨ a mystery
β¨ an ancestor no one talks about
β¨ someone whose story deserves to be remembered
Your family history isnβt random β itβs a series of threads woven through time.
Tracing those threads can change how you see yourself, your roots, and your future.

πΏPackages Preview
πΏ Start Your Story (Β£65) - Beginner - 1 ancestor, 1 record, short narrative
πΏ Standard Research (Β£175) - Continuing - Up to 3 generations
β Evidence-based research only
β Support and guidance every step
β Suitable for beginners and experienced researchers
β Clear communication and expectations
β UK & Irish records, migrations, brick walls, lost lines
β ICOES-certified in DNA & Genealogy
β Investigative, analytical and accuracy-focused approach
β Confidential, careful and methodical research
β¨ Your history is treated with respect at every step β¨
You donβt need certificates, photos or detailed knowledge. Even if you only know a name, place or approximate year, thatβs enough to begin. Many people start with very little information β thatβs completely normal.
Smaller research projects may take 2β4 weeks, while deeper investigations or legacy projects may take longer. Timeframes are estimated at the beginning and I keep you updated throughout so you always know what stage weβre at.
In rare cases where records are missing or incomplete, I provide a research summary of where and how the search was conducted, and guidance on what may be possible next (for example parish, archive or newspaper searches). You will not be left with silence β youβll always receive an explanation, guidance and options.
Smaller packages are paid in full at the start. For larger packages, instalments are available depending on the structure of the project. Payment is handled securely via Bank Transfer or PayPal.
Yes β I specialise in UK and Irish ancestry research, including Scottish and Northern Irish lines. Some research can extend internationally depending on migration patterns and record availability.
If you have AncestryDNA, MyHeritage or similar results, I can help you incorporate those clues into your research path β especially useful when records are fragmented.
You will receive a written narrative summary, not just a list of facts.
My aim is to help you understand who your ancestor was β where they lived, the time period, and context surrounding their life.
Yes β gift vouchers are available and can be used for any package or project. They make meaningful presents for birthdays, Christmas, anniversaries and family milestones.
Your research is delivered digitally as a PDF and/or document depending on the package. Larger packages can be printed or bound as an optional upgrade.
Absolutely β many clients come to me when they reach a βbrick wallβ or when records or stories donβt match. I can help confirm, correct or continue the research.
Yes β I offer an optional gravesite and monument search add-on. This can help identify the resting place of an ancestor and sometimes provides clues that records alone do not.
If youβre unsure which package is right for you, youβre welcome to message me β Iβm happy to help you choose the best starting point.
