Discover your Family History!
Have you seen the TV show, "Who do you think you are?" Or perhaps the TV ads for Ancestry.com? Now you can begin your own family story. With this genealogy session, you may uncover lines of your family that you never knew about. You must bring to the session as much as you know about your family, such as parents' and grandparents' names, birth dates, marriages and locations. The session can be one in which you work together with the researcher for a few hours, or the researcher can work by herself on your family line; it's your choice. The resources used in this session include US census records, birth and death records, marriage data, ship passenger lists and more. The product of this session will be all the information that is uncovered and can be formatted into a printable family tree or another type of report. This is also a GREAT GIFT for parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles.
