What My Customers Say
“Since the recent passing of my father, my mother had died when I was young, so, I had a strong interest in trying to find out about my family and where I came from. I was introduced to Sarah Smith who I employed to help me. She was brilliant, Sarah was sensitive, efficient, patient, persistent and professional. Sarah helped me discover a massive amount about my family’s past, something I could of never of done on my own. This was my first experience of genealogy and I was not disappointed. I would warmly recommend Sarah to you, for a rewarding experience.”
