I will trace the lineage of the ancestors you have chosen (two family lines) as far back as I can accurately research them. This would typically be the early 1800s or late 1700s. I will only present information that can be backed up with evidence, and I will provide sources.

​

​

 

    In your research package:

 

 

• up to 15 BMD certificates/PDF entries (combination of both)

• 40 or 55* hours research time**

• relevant census returns, parish register extracts and entries, and any other relevant documents, including newspaper articles (if applicable) 

• military, local history (providing context)

• research report (narratives for direct ancestors)

• ancestors occupations

• addresses and places your ancestors lived

• surname meanings

• images, maps and more

• pedigree chart

• flash drive (loaded with all research)

• advice and tips

• padded family history binder to hold all your certificates and any other documentation I find during the research process. The binder comes with pocket sleeves which are designed to hold BMD certificates and other documentation. You can choose the colour of your binder when ordering.

        Binder colours: Blue, Green, Black, Burgundy

*Research hours depend on whether you have opted for 40 or 55 hours.

​

**This is research time only and does not include the time it takes to type up the research report, or the time it takes to travel to a local record office. It is the actual time spent researching the lines you have purchased.

​

​

 

​Requirements

 

I will need your parents birth dates and birthplaces. I will also need details of your grandparents for the lines you would like me to research. Please provide as much information as you can.

 

For example if you wish me to research your maternal grandparents lines, I would need your mother and your maternal grandparents birth details. I will also trace a couple of branches off the main lines. In other words I won't just trace the main surnames. 

​

You may decide for me to research one maternal line and one paternal line so I would need details for your maternal and paternal grandparents.

 

I offer more hours of research for each package so that I can do extensive research.

 

 

​​Payment

​

I will send an invoice via PayPal asking for 50% of the package to be paid before research begins. You do not need a PayPal account to pay the invoice through PayPal. You can pay using your  debit or credit card.

​

The remaining 50% (balance) will be due once the research has been completed. A separate invoice will be sent to you. Once full payment has been received the research package will be dispatched to you.

​

If you pay through my website PayPal gives you the option of paying in three interest free payments (over three months). If you prefer to spread the cost then you have that as an option.

​

I will be adding other ways to pay via my website soon.

Upgrade Option

                                   

If you wish to upgrade to a four family line package, you can do so at any time. Please email me first.

​

Delivery

 

You should expect the delivery of this research package (two family lines) to be approximately 15 weeks. This is an approximate time only and may change if there is a delay for some reason. You will be informed if there is a delay. If you purchased 55 hours (more in-depth research) it will take a little longer.

 

The time includes research, waiting for certificates to arrive, as well as visiting record offices (if applicable), and typing up your research report.  

​

Deliveries outside the UK may incur an extra cost (the price that it will cost for your research to be delivered to you). This will not apply if you prefer your research to be emailed to you.

 

You will receive regular updates by email on progress made. 

​

​

​Cancellations and Refunds

​

You can make a cancellation before research is completed and you will only be charged for the research I have already undertaken, which includes any purchases that I have already made to further the research. This includes my time researching,  BMD certificates and other documents I have purchased.

​

​In the event that I am unable to proceed with your research, you will be notified and offered either a partial refund or a full refund, depending on how far into the research I was at the point of cancellation.

 

For further information about cancellations and refunds, please refer to my Terms and Conditions.
