What I can research for you

Every commission starts the same way: a free conversation about what you’d like to discover, and an honest assessment of whether the records can deliver it.

Record Nº 001

Family Tree Research

I trace your family through original records (census returns, parish registers, certificates) and turn what I find into a report your whole family will actually enjoy reading.

From £245

Record Nº 002

DNA Discoveries

A DNA test gives you percentages and a list of strangers. I turn those into named ancestors, confirmed connections — and sometimes the answer to a question your family has carried for decades.

From £95

Record Nº 003

Military Ancestors

Almost every British family has a serviceman or woman in living memory’s reach. I find the records of their service — where they went, what they faced, and what the medals in the drawer actually mean.

From £349

Record Nº 004

House Histories

Your house had a life before you. I trace the people who built it and lived in it — through deeds, directories, census returns and maps — and give your home its biography.

From £129

Record Nº 005

Heirloom Books

Research that lives in a folder gets forgotten. I write your family’s story as a proper narrative — and print it as a hardback book your grandchildren’s grandchildren will hold. The perfect present for a milestone anniversary — silver, golden or diamond — or any occasion worth marking forever.

From £950

Record Nº 006

Photo & Document Care

The small services that support every family story: photographs rescued from fading and damage, and the certificates your research needs, sourced correctly the first time.

From £25
