Accessing and choosing the right family history services is as simple as reaching out to me. I’ll work closely with you to understand your goals and tailor my services to meet your needs.
Genealogist
A carefully crafted family tree reveals your lineage. It unveils hidden stories, provides insights into your ancestral heritage, and unearths lost connections. I begin your family tree with what you know about your relatives and then trace backwards through the generations. Birth, marriage, and death certificates, census records, immigration documents, and more are pieced together to establish connections.
Storyteller
I can bring your family history to life by telling the stories gathered from your family tree. These stories capture the essence of the past, showcasing triumphs, struggles, and unique journeys in a family album unique to you.
These stories create a lasting legacy, connecting your family to your heritage.
Heritage Travel Writer
From your family tree, I can craft a personalized travel guide to lead you on a journey to your ancestral origins. The travel guide unveils the stories behind the places, people, and traditions that shaped your family’s past. By mapping out significant locations tied to your heritage, I can design a fascinating itinerary. Using the guide you can visit hometowns, ancestral lands, and cultural landmarks, walking in the footsteps of your ancestors.
Heritage Tour Guide
Alternatively, you can engage me to take you on a personalized journey and explore your family’s history on-site. As your guide I can provide context, share stories, and help you connect with your roots in a tangible way.
Walking through ancestral towns, visiting family landmarks, and engaging with local culture brings your ancestors to life. This approach creates lasting memories and is a unique way to honor and explore your family legacy.
Family History Mentor
As your mentor, I can equip you with the tools to explore your heritage independently. Through personalized coaching, you can learn how to navigate archives, and uncover hidden stories from your past. I provide expert advice on tracing your ancestry, interpreting records, and organizing findings. You will learn to be accurate, minimizing errors and misinterpretations and breaking down your brick walls.
Researcher
If you are unable to access archives in Central and South West England, I can act as a remote researcher. With expertise in archival research and local records, I can perform document look ups to gather the information you need. My skills and knowledge ensure accurate and thorough research, saving you time and effort. By receiving detailed findings and insights, you can connect with your heritage, even from a distance.
Take the first step towards creating a lasting legacy
If you are ready to start upon your journey, let’s talk. I can set you on the path to uncovering your family’s stories and will create a map for the road ahead. Together, we’ll bring your heritage to life.
