Description

Discover how much progress you can make with a personalised consultation tailored to your current research stage and available family history documents. Our genealogists understand key online databases and offline archives, accelerating your search effectively.

They identify additional record sources, develop a clear search strategy, and map out your research path. You will leave the session with renewed confidence and clarity on the next steps in your family history quest.

Note: Research from the 18th century and earlier is challenging in Ireland due to limited records, which may affect tracing your ancestry further back.

  • A name, date, and approximate time period of at least one ancestor is recommended to begin research
  • Genealogists can work with varying information levels—from extensive family trees to just a few names
  • Bring any documents or family information you have available
