Description

80 Hours Research

You and a Research Consultant work together to design a project to meet your research objectives, for example, tracing the ancestry of your four grandparents.

• We review the background information that you provide, as well as prior research reports. Researchers prepare the research plan to address the goals.
• Each completed project is compiled into a printed booklet that includes a research report, research calendar, images of supporting documents, a pedigree chart and family group records.
• Recommendations for future research are included. This will help us keep track of any objectives that will require more work in a possible future project.
• DNA projects focus on analyzing your DNA in relation to your specific objective(s). You may request that we order a DNA test kit for you as part of your project.
• Projects will use available traditional sources, and if DNA tests results could help break through brick walls, this valuable resource will be used, too.
• We use records found in various repositories, including the world-famous Family History Library in Salt Lake City, Utah, as well as available online records from other sources.
• As needed, we will used one of our many onsite researchers to access local records in courthouses, genealogical societies, county record offices, diocesan archives, museums, state libraries, or state archives.

What you will receive:

• Each project is assembled into a printed booklet that includes a research report, document calendar, images or extracts of source documents and pedigree chart(s) along with family groups showing our research findings.
