I should add that anyone can do what I offer if they have access to Ancestry and Find My Past and have the time and patience to sit in front of a computer screen for hours.

I'm reminded of being in a bookshop at Hay and overhearing a conversation between a couple. Faced with tens of thousands of books with no indexing - and having one book they wanted, the woman said, 'I can't be doing this!'.

Well, I 'do it' with family history.

But my speciality is overcoming brick walls or correcting wrong history - I give full explanations of my thought processes. I like to think I go the extra mile.
