Where do I start?

An Expert Assessment is the perfect way to begin your genealogical journey with us. A Researcher will examine your existing family research and develop a detailed strategy for future research and provide any source material uncovered. This one-day service starts at $700 for members and $840 for non-members. Learn more about our Expert Assessment process

Once you have been paired with a Researcher on our Team and an expert assessment is completed, you can decide to continue your research with our Research Services Team, or you can continue on your own by using the expert recommendations provided.

With each completed Expert Assessment, you will receive:

  • A list of specific resources examined
  • Copies of any records discovered during the Assessment
  • Suggestions for further independent research, and
  • A detailed strategy for what can be accomplished with additional research for hire.
