Genealogy Research Service

Before we accept a commission will evaluate the information you have on your ancestors, as a basis for the research to be undertaken. Please complete our Assessment/Enquiry form with all the information on your ancestor that you currently have and an initial assessment will be undertaken. If you wish to further explore your family history we have a number of genealogical services to offer.

* An Exploratory Search of 3 hours @ US$150
* A Standard search of 5 hours @ US$250
* A Comprehensive search of 8 hours @ US$400

An sample of a completed comprehensive assessment is available here.

These fees covers the cost of postage and copies of all relevant documents made, up to the value of 5% of the initial fee.

What you get from us.

• We will explain all aspects of the `detective work' necessary in genealogy searches, the sources used (i.e. what information they contain, why the sources were originally compiled, any possible gaps in coverage);
• We will outline and explain all records found which relate to your family history (what the information tells us about your family, their profession, class, reason for emigrating etc.)
• We will give you a brief outline of the history of Ireland at the time your ancestor's emigrated and explain how they were affected by the social, cultural, economic and cultural events of their time.

In order to carry out a full and complete search, it is necessary for you to provide us with as much relevant information on your ancestors as possible. The basic details required would include

• the full names of your ancestors,
• approx. dates of birth, marriage or death,
• where they lived and
• their religion(s).
• their profession / occupation.

We guarantee a quick reply, at a very reasonable rate. Due to the nature of genealogical research, we cannot guarantee a positive result every time.
