relevant records.

Consultation & Advice on your
Project
If you want to do the research yourself
but aren't quite sure where to start, tell us about the status of your current research and we can suggest the best
sources for you to consult and give you guidance on where and how to find these records.

Record Retrieval from Various Repositories
If you already know what documents you need,
and the reference details (eg. Date, Location, etc), we will go anywhere in Ireland to the relevant repository to
obtain the document on your behalf and send it to you by post and email.
|
Workshops
If some members of your local social club or activity group
would like to learn how to research and document their family trees, we can arrange to visit your hall or clubhouse
and spend some time giving one-to-one help and guidance to all interested parties. Normally a set of 6 classes is
adequate and will result in great progress and satisfaction for all participants.

Guided Research Trips
Some people wish to have full involvement
in their family history research, but yet also desire the assistance of a knowledgeable genealogist to accompany
them to the repositories and help them with their research. This can be arranged to fit in with your holiday itinerary
and will ensure that you can maximise your findings for your limited time in Ireland.
|
Seminars
In a similar vein to the workshops mentioned above,
if your local social club or activity group would like to learn about researching their family trees,
we can arrange to visit your hall or clubhouse and give a seminar on this topic, tailored to whatever skill level is required.
Often, a follow-up seminar may be held a few months later for those who feel that they are ready to progress to
the next level and want to learn more.

Documentation of Your Research
Occasionally a person may know many details
about their family's history, but have never organised or documented what they know into a easily-accessible format.
We can review whatever paperwork you have and can compile it, together with your oral account of your
family's history to produce a report or booklet that can be distributed amongst your relatives, or simply
kept within your own family as an heirloom.
|
Pedigree Sketches
For those who have made progress on their family tree,
it is nice to transfer this information into a Pedigree Sketch or Chart, which can be printed onto a poster
or canvas backing if desired.

Itinerary Preparation for Your Research Trip
For those who are planning a trip to Ireland
and wish to do some family history research while they're here, we can give you some guidance and suggest the best
sources for you to consult based on your specific project. We also give you details of where and how to find these records,
along with maps of repository locations and opening hours.
