Report is awesome

Wow! The report is awesome. I cannot thank you and the Irish Researchers enough for all the work, time and care that was put into it. To be able to see the documents first hand, to be able to put some more pieces of the puzzle together and extend my tree so richly is amazing.

-Bob J.

Should have charged more

Your research has been more helpful than what I have paid you and I am very pleased with all the info you have sent me. It has been gratifying finding the one immigration record that I have been searching for several years.

-Harry P.

Completely satisfied

I am completely satisfied with the results of my inquiry. Seeing my great-grandfather’s marriage record honestly gave me a feeling of closure and connection that a transcript never could. Records that were not possible for me to get yesterday are in my hand today. Unbelievable!

-Darlene T.

Beautiful Family Tree

I have been looking at the tree you have prepared and I am just blown away! Wow, you have found so much information. There are people on the tree that I have not heard of before and I will be excited to explore all of them.

Fabulous report

I am SO happy with the report, screaming and crying last night. I called and shared with my mother this morning that you had found her birth place and we cried together on the phone.

– Brenda M.

What a treasure!

You gave me wonderful new information and even some additional entries on the same pages that I did not know anything about. What a treasure! Thank you, with this being a dead end family for me this has been so very wonderful!

-Heather N.

Thank you a million times

Thank you a million times over for the thorough research. I appreciate the information and I will continue to work to solve the mystery of this line of ancestors. Please relay my thanks to your researcher.

Why Choose Genealogists.com?

We know where to look. Not all the records that are needed are in FamilySearch or Ancestry. In fact, over 85% of the records that are needed, are not yet online anywhere. Knowing where to look to find the desired record(s) is absolutely essential.
We know how to glean all the data possible from the records found. Once you find the desired record, it is essential to know how to properly analyze its contents completely so we can learn as much information as possible. This is a skill that takes time and experience to develop. It requires recognizing the clues and applying what is learned.
We know what to look for. Being in the correct location and searching in the best ways possible is only productive if you know what specifically to search for. Do you need a marriage record, birth record, or probate record?”
We work collaboratively with other genealogists and with subject matter experts. No single researcher can be an expert in all specialties and for all time periods. Depending on our ancestors and their specific situations, we need to leverage the multiple specialists in a variety of disciplines and time frames.
We know how to glean. It is not enough to simply be in the “correct” location, you must be able to know how and what to search for. Knowledge of advanced search techniques, is paramount to finding the records even when one is searching in the correct locations.
We know where else to look and can access those locations. As much as we would love to have all the records that we need in one location, that fact remains that most records are in multiple locations. Very few people have every significant event in their lives happen in the same city or even county. Our ancestors moved around, attending school, serving in the military, getting married, having children, dying, etc. For most people, we need to search multiple locations to find the records we need. Therefore, identifying the various locations and having researchers who reside in each of those locations, and who can be trusted to find the desired records is also essential.
We know how to put it all together to create quality deliverables, including sourced and detailed research reports. We provide the lowest price and highest quality — Guaranteed!. Get a lower quote from any reputable firm, provide us with that quote, and we will beat it. It’s no wonder why year after year clients consistently rate Genealogists.com No. 1 in Customer Satisfaction.
