So were your ancestors’ — by clerks who heard them wrong, census takers who guessed at spellings, and priests recording them in Latin.
We find them anyway.
Real map render pending — will be replaced with actual output from the first family test run through the production pipeline.
Every pin reveals a piece of your history.
One record, correctly read, rewrites what you thought you knew about your family.
Choose a product, enter a name, share whatever you know. Even a name and a city is enough. Upload documents if you have them.
Our researchers search dozens of databases across the US and Europe — census records, ship manifests, parish registers, civil archives. Every search is documented. Every finding is verified.
A clear, professional deliverable focused on your goal. Record images with transcriptions and translations. Written narratives. Family charts. Location maps. Next steps.
Every record we find is reproduced in your report, with a full transcription in the original language and an English translation alongside.
We plot every village, church, port, and city on a map so you can see the geographic arc of your family’s life — from their home parish to where they settled.
Visual line or tree charts show the people we found, how they’re related, and where the documentation is solid versus provisional.
We write the story the records tell — a chapter per generation, in the voice of a careful historian, not a database export.
For records held by modern agencies — birth certificates, death records — we provide the exact form, fee, and contact to order them yourself.
Every report ends with a list of specific, actionable next research directions — records that likely exist, leads worth following, questions worth resolving.
Genealogy research can be exhausting. Just when you think you found something, the dates are wrong. Skip the headache and let us do the heavy lifting.
Start Your SearchSix ways to begin — from a single record to your entire tree.
We locate a specific document — a birth certificate, marriage record, ship manifest, or other record. Location identifies where it’s held; Retrieval obtains the image with transcription and translation.
