You may have lost contact with a relative for whatever reason and now wish to try and find them again. Don’t worry about hitting a brick wall in your search - I can help with tracking them down via a range of modern resources, providing you with a fresh set of eyes and knowledge of other places to look for an answer.
As a genealogist, I understand that families can be extremely complex. Whether you were adopted and are now looking for answers or have simply fallen out of touch with family, I treat every search with sensitivity and professionalism. I can help with tracking relatives and even old friends down, using a range of modern resources to help you locate them.
Genealogical documents were never designed for us to use for research, they are prone to errors, misspellings, transcription issues, or your ancestors simply wishing to cover up the truth. As a trained genealogist, I make the most of local Northamptonshire, English, and Irish records to search for your lost family connections.
Sometimes, ancestors can be a bit deceptive. In these cases of family misinformation, I specialise in searching out the truth where records permit. Whether you want to find out a specific family story or discover more about an ancestor, I can provide a tailored service for your project.
You may already have researched your family tree or tried to find a missing connection, but then hit such a brick wall that you didn’t know what to do next. I provide a fresh set of eyes and access to resources you may not have considered, helping you to find the knowledge you are searching for.
Tracking down lost heirs and beneficiaries of a will can sometimes mean a deep dive into genealogical resources as well as information from the here and now. I use my experience with traditional and modern documents to search for heirs, ensuring your family story can continue to grow.
There was always a nagging doubt in my mind that all the stories I was told about my family history did not add up – Heather through her hard work, diligence, and passion has found new relatives, a colourful history that had been hidden away and unlocked feelings about people who without Heather’s expertise would have been hidden forever.
