When
will my family research start?
As soon as you
agree on the package and at least the £30.00 non-returnable deposit has been paid you will be given a search start date.
|
|
|
How
soon will the search be completed?
Straightforward
single family line searches are normally completed
within eight hours with more complicated searches taking
more time. As soon as I have collated and checked the
search data you will be notified. Under normal
circumstances this should be within seven working days
of the search start date. |
|
|
What
happens after my research has been completed?
If you have
previously paid the £30.00 non-returnable deposit the
£90.00 balance is due before your search results are
emailed to you. If the full fee of £120.00 has already
been paid the detailed search report will be emailed to
you on its completion. |
|
|
In
what form are the search results presented?
Family tree
search results are presented as typed reports in Adobe PDF file format. To view/download an example report please click here.
In addition to the free Adobe PDF report file,
at additional cost, you can now choose to have your family
tree presented in a 3D
page turning ebook. |

How
far back can my Scottish family line be traced?
Using official records held at New Register House, Edinburgh, it's possible to trace
most Scottish families back to the mid-to-early 1800s. However, there are exceptions
to this; e.g. your ancestors may have been immigrants. Some local parish records
go back further and could possibly take your family tree back to a much earlier time.
However, it's best to restrict the initial search to the 1800s date. Later, if requested,
I can advise you whether it would be practicable, or cost effective, to
search
further back in time using local parish records, etc. |
|
|
Where
is my family research carried out?
At
New
Register
House Edinburgh. Official
records include; birth, marriage and death
certificates,
census returns and old parish records. These documents can reveal an enormous amount of interesting, and at times
unexpected information about your Scottish
ancestors. |

|
When
do I pay?
After a start date has been agreed you can either pay the £30.00 non-returnable deposit with the £90.00
balance due on completion of your family search, or you can opt to pay the full £120.00 fee before the work
starts. Please note: Your research will not begin until at least the £30.00 non-returnable deposit has
been paid. |
