Sorry, but I don't see the point of taking away all the pleasure you can get from finding your own rellies. I have used a researcher twice, but only for items from the PRO when I cant get to London. Hubby's cousin had a researcher do his whole tree. Hubby checked it, it was a load of old rubbish. Names fitted in as and where they would, no deaths at all. If you cant spare the time to do your own tree, then why bother at all. Beware, in my opinion you will only waste your money, only use a researcher for items that you find impossible for you to do yourself

Hi, There are adverts in the back of monthly family history magazines. Basically you get what you pay for. The best ones are quite expensive but can find in an hour what a poor one will take a day to find. Gwynne
