Common Enquiries Regarding Professional Genealogy
Clear answers to help you understand our methodology, pricing transparency, and client deliverables.
To initiate a research commission, we ideally need the full name, approximate birth or marriage date, and known geographic location of a grandparent or great-grandparent. Any known family traditions or religious affiliations also assist in narrowing repository searches.
Less than 30% of historical records are digitised or indexed online. Professional genealogists consult un-indexed original parish registers, Chancery court rolls, manorial court records, tithe apportionments, and wills held in local archives, verifying every connection through the Genealogical Proof Standard (GPS).
Clients receive a comprehensive bound or digital Archival Research Dossier containing verified pedigree charts, full palaeographic transcription notes, high-resolution original record scans, an exhaustive research log, and clean, validated GEDCOM data files.
