Taylor-Made Trees

About

Would you love to know about your ancestors but have no idea where to start?

Are there gaps in your family knowledge that you’ve always wondered about?

Do you have a mysterious relative who intrigues you?

Are you looking for a unique keepsake for a special person, or to hand down to future generations?

A lifetime of discovery
Genealogy is addictive – I started tracing my family story in 1982, then began studying with the Institute of Heraldic & Genealogical Studies, and now help others to build their own family trees.
Your family history is unique to you. In the same way, the process of uncovering it will be unique too. Whether you’re looking for a bit of support to get started, or full ‘done for you’ research, I’m certain that I can help you shed light on your past.

Your personal researcher
Working with you on a 1:1 basis, I can show you how to start researching your family tree, or help you find that one missing branch or twig!
Alternatively, I can be your personal expert tree builder, doing the research for you as far as you would like me to take it (or as far as the records go…).
Just contact me to discuss your ideas. I offer a FREE, no-obligation consultation – together we can make a plan that suits you.

Beginners’ small group workshops
If your friends are also keen to explore their ancestry, why not arrange a personalised workshop as a group?
Getting together is a great way of saving money and discovering something new about social history, your family and yourself.
With a maximum of 4 people, these sessions are relaxed and can be tailored to your needs.
Presentations
Are you part of a group that invites visiting speakers?
My presentation How to start building your family tree always goes down well.
Using real-life examples, I demonstrate what needs to be done as a beginner genealogist, along with some of the pitfalls and surprises that may await you!
