Research & field observation

Evidence-gathering services with carefully bounded conclusions, access and privacy.

Compare what you can responsibly deliver, what must be arranged before payment, and what you would decline. A listing here is not evidence of demand or permission to trade.

Trace an agreed family-history question using lawful records and a documented evidence trail.

First check: Respect record-access and privacy rules and do not promise a particular ancestry finding.

Archival research for authors

Locate and summarize relevant archival material for a client's defined writing project.

First check: Follow archive rules and copyright conditions; access does not automatically grant publication rights.

First check: State that this is documentation, not appraisal, legal evidence certification or insurance advice.

Lead a suitable observation outing on a route where paid guiding is permitted.
