As family historians have different requirements and budgets, I offer a variety of services.
I can undertake research for England and Wales, specialising in research for the
county of Gloucestershire, which will be done both online and at the
Gloucestershire Archives,
formerly Gloucester Record Office. Here are some of the
family history sources I
use for researching your tree.
Family History Research by the Hour
My hourly rate for research starts at just £10 per hour, and
includes travelling and parking fees. Copies of documents and certificates
are charged at cost. All research is
undertaken promptly and as accurately as possible.

Gloucestershire Parish Register Look-Ups
If you are undertaking your own family history research, and have seen a
baptism, marriage or burial that took place in Gloucestershire, transcribed
somewhere, you may find my
Gloucestershire Parish Register look-up service useful. Here is a list
of Gloucestershire parishes.
For a marriage
that took place in a Gloucestershire church after 1837, then you could
receive the details without the expense of sending for the GRO Certificate.
Sometimes parish registers can provide interesting extra details which are
not transcribed elsewhere. One baptism I found contained
the names of the child’s mother’s parents, which proved very useful. Burial
entries may give a cause of death, if noteworthy.
Family History Research Packages
Although I can work to any budget you set, I realise that some people
prefer a fixed-price family tree research package, and I offer the following selection. Please
note when comparing research packages, I always obtain GRO birth and marriage
certificates to prove your ancestry, as far as they are available, and do
not rely on census entries or indexes alone. The number of certificates
included in each package is shown.
Just Curious Family Tree Package
I trace one line of your family back to the 1901 census. Depending on
your age, this could reveal one of your grandparents, great grandparents
or even great, great grandparents! Find out where they were living, who they
were living with and what their occupations were (if any). >>more
Delving Deeper Family Tree Package
I aim to trace one line of your family tree, from a proven starting
point, back to the early 1800s. You will discover a wealth of information
about your ancestors; such as who they married, where they were born, their
occupations, as well as their children and siblings if they had any.
