Do you want to know your family history, but don't have the time or skills to do the research yourself?
Do you need help breaking through that genealogy "brick wall"?
Do you need help with research to qualify for a lineage society like the DAR or Mayflower Society?
Do you need a consultation to get some suggestions on where to research next?
Do you need help identifying a family photograph?
Do you want to find cousins and family members to share information with?
Do you want to organize your family papers to hand down to your children and grandchildren?
Stop to think about it - your ancestors are a part of you! Their experiences shaped your parents' lives, and thus your own. Such things as character traits, personality, appearance, and even where we live are influenced by those who came before us. Are you musically inclined? Did you get red hair from your grandmother, who had Irish grandparents? Is there a family story about a great-great grandfather who was a drummer boy in the Civil War? Did your father-in-law work in the Civilian Conservation Corps during the Great Depression?
All of them have stories to tell.
