Tracing your family history can help you discover your roots and gain a deeper understanding of the lives your ancestors lived. Family history research often uncovers fascinating stories about ordinary people – their work, their communities and the challenges they faced.

At Family Tree Researchers, we are experienced family history researchers based in the UK. Our team of professional genealogists and family historians provide a wide range of research services to help you explore your ancestry. Whether you are just starting your family tree or have already begun researching your ancestors, we can assist with expert guidance and detailed historical research.

Because every family history is different, our services are flexible and tailored to suit your needs and budget.

Our Family History Research Services

We provide several types of genealogy research services, including:

Family Tree Research Packages
We can build a family tree from scratch using historical records such as census returns, parish registers, and civil registration records. These packages are ideal if you want to discover your ancestry and see how your family developed over generations.

Brick Wall Research
If you have reached a point where your research has become difficult, we can investigate the problem and help break through those frustrating “brick walls” in your family tree.

Birth, Marriage and Death Certificate Searches
We can locate and obtain official certificates for your ancestors, helping confirm important family connections and historical details.

Dating Old Photographs
If you have discovered old family photographs but are unsure when they were taken, we can help estimate dates by analysing photographic styles, clothing, studio backgrounds and other historical clues.

Photograph Restoration
Old family photographs can become damaged, faded or creased over time. We can digitally restore scanned images so that you can preserve them and create high-quality reprints for your family records.

Personal and Friendly Research Service

Whatever your family history research needs may be, we aim to provide a friendly and professional service. If you commission us to carry out research on your behalf, we will always keep you informed of progress and explain what we discover along the way.

Before beginning any work, we will agree:

• the scope of the research

• the expected timescale

• the estimated cost

This is particularly important when the research is intended as a special gift for a birthday, anniversary or family event.

We aim to help you uncover your family’s story and present it in a clear and meaningful way for you and future generations to enjoy.
