Family History And Ancestry Search – Research Through People

Here’s how Research Through People go about finding out where you came from and revealing the fascinating information about your ancestors.

When we hear from you, we will get in touch for a free consultation about your family to agree what we will do on your behalf.

Then we will follow a structured approach to carry out the research and maximise the benefits.

We will look at many different sources and use proven tools and techniques of successful organisations to find out who were the members of your family, where they lived, what they did and other information about their lives.

Typically, we can trace a family back at least 200 years unless there are complications.

Here's how we go about it

We will prepare an easy to read report containing all this information which explains the approach taken, comments on what has been found and any problems encountered and makes suggestions for further research that might be rewarding.

The extent of the research will depend on which of our packages you choose.

Our research can also be tailored to your precise requirements. Examples of research and other tasks that can be included in the packages are:

LIVING RELATIVES

Tracing living relatives can find new friends with a shared interest as well as unearthing more family information and heirlooms.

VISIT FAMILY LOCATIONS

Photos of where your ancestors came from can bring them to life and local archives always have further information that is not available elsewhere.

ANCESTORS' FOOTSTEPS

We can organise and go with you to visit family locations and walk in your ancestors' footsteps.

NEWSPAPERS

These contain the human stories about events in your ancestors’ lives.

“You have done an incredible job! Your presentation and compilation of it all is quite brilliant. History really comes alive when we can be so in touch with family matters that happened 200+ years ago.”

Paul D, New Zealand

“I am fast running out of the necessary superlatives relative to the wonderful way you are demolishing "brick walls" with your very competent knowledge of Family Search techniques. Once again I am jumping with joy with what you have sent me.”

Malcolm A, Scotland
