Family Tree Searchers
Helping you search your family tree
Whether creating introductory family trees or assisting more specialist cases, I offer help with a range of family history research projects.
Dedicated Genealogist & Family Historian
I am Heather Nowlan, a genealogist and family historian based in Northamptonshire. Passionate about searching for family stories, I have been helping my clients for over ten years. My experience has led to becoming the Vice Chair and a Trustee for the Society of Genealogists and I am well placed to travel to the major archives and libraries to conduct research, including the National Archives.

Discover Family Roots in Northamptonshire & Beyond
I undertake a wide variety of family history research projects including creating family trees and finding lost relatives. My research has delved into sometimes wonderful, often complex family mysteries including secret families and forgotten pasts. As part of my services, I focus on local Northamptonshire as well as England, Wales, and Ireland.
