Do you need help with your family history?
One of the things I often hear in genealogy lists etc is about the need for a researcher to obtain copies of documents or undertake a small bit of research which cannot be done otherwise due to distance and cost.
While there are a number of excellent professional genealogists available many people have found the need of a good amateur who can assist with records when it comes to Belfast and the North of Ireland.
Having been approached many times for advice and help with obtaining records from PRONI etc and specific searches in regards to newspaper archives etc myself and my colleague Sandie have set up a small research service for those family historians overseas (and closer to home) who need such help.
It may be all you need is a copy of a document you've already researched or it may be something more substantial as trying to find a possible location from a street directory or census record. You may have a date of death and want to find if there was a death notice placed in a newspaper or check a cemetery record or a obtain a photo of a grave.
