Tree Building & Records
Evidence-led lineage research using appropriate civil, census, parish and archival records, with uncertainties made clear.
Read the pre-launch outline →Two ways into the past
Build the lineage. Understand the lives.
Genealogy establishes who people were and how they were connected. Family history places those people within the work, places, pressures and possibilities of their own time.
Choose the depth that fits your purpose.
Some projects need a carefully evidenced tree or an answer to a particular lineage question. Others begin with those records and develop them into a fuller account of an individual, household or family across generations.
These services are currently in pre-launch development and are not yet open for commissions.
Contextual Narratives & Biographies
Readable, referenced stories that connect ancestors to their occupations, communities, movements and historical setting.
Read the pre-launch outline →Evidence before certainty
Names, dates and inherited stories are tested against the record rather than made to fit a convenient conclusion.
A connected approach
From record to interpretation.
A family tree provides structure. Historical context gives that structure meaning. The two can stand alone or form successive stages of a larger future project.
Services launching soon.
Genealogy and family-history commissions are currently closed during pre-launch site development.
