Do you, as do many others, wish that you had a record of your family history but just don’t have time to do all the research or just don’t know where to start? Much less, what to do with the information you have or any information once you find it? Well, I offer a solution to just those problems! Whether you have just a little bit of information on your family ancestry or a lot, I can help you find more and put it all together in one report to keep and to share and more importantly, pass along to your children and grand-children.

 

Click on the tab above to access an example of what your Family Ancestry Report would look like. It will include as many 5 generation ancestry trees that I can find in my research. Each individual will be assigned an identification number in each tree. These numbers will help connect you to the information you find within the report. The greater the number of ancestors within a report the harder it sometimes becomes to keep track of them and how each is related to you, so the numbering system helps you keep them all straight! Your family ancestry report will include any and all information I can find out about each individual found in each 5 generation ancestry tree. The first tree will start with you and go back as far as I can. If I have more information on the last person in a family line (the 5th generation on that tree) I will connect that last person to his or her next 5 generation ancestral tree by stating what page to go to next. I will go back as far as I can until I am unsure or have doubts of whether or not a person is actually one of your ancestors.

 

The availability of documentation is crucial to proving a person is truly your ancestor and I promise to only post individuals on your ancestral tree that I am 90% or more positive that they are.

 

How much does a report cost? Costs vary depending on how much information I can find. I don’t want to charge someone for a report that has very little in it and I am sure you do not want that either. So, each 5 generation ancestry tree will cost between $25 and $50, depending on how much information I can find, but never over $50 per tree. Not all 5 generation trees are completely filled as one set of parents within a tree may not be known, so those trees would only cost the minimum charge of $25. If things look like they are going well and I am able to trace your ancestors along several family lines more than 10 generations, or 2 ancestral trees, and it looks like you could end up with more than 5 trees of family ancestors, there is only a maximum charge of $250. So, the least you would be paying is $25 and the most is $250. You let me know how much you are willing to spend and I will go from there. The only additional charges may be if I have to order Birth, Marriage, or Death Certificates from a State Archive. Many are now available at no charge but some states just feel the need to make money off of us. I will notify you as your report progresses if that may be part of your costs.

 

So, look over the sample ancestry report linked above and if you want me to start on yours, just email me at rwrspeters@comcast.net. The minimum $25 is due before I start and remember the most it will cost you is $250 plus document costs!

 

*Any documents or information in your report will show sources so you can look it up later for yourself!

 

**I will ask for any pictures and documents you may already have about your family ancestors emailed to me for inclusion in your report. If email won’t work you can snail-mail them to me and I will scan them and return them to you.

 

***All information presented in your report will be from online research that I do. I have several websites that I pay annually to gain access to so you don’t have to. I cannot travel to do research and this report is really only meant to give you what you don’t have time to do yourself, spend hours online trying to find your family history!
