Client Reviews
Amazing work carried out by John, the family history he discovered was so knowledgable and it helped to answer so many unanswered questions. First class work!!
Yvonne
John recently delved into the history of my dental practice for an upcoming 50th anniversary. His attention to detail and methodical approach was clear to see from the outset. His results were presented clearly and have been well received by everyone who has read the well worded and interesting narrative of the dental practice.
Stuart
My father's parents died when he was very young and there was no way for him to learn about his family history. We can't thank John enough for the excellent genealogy service he provided for us. His passion and dedication was evident throughout. We now have a fantastic family tree and so much more knowledge and understanding of our family history.
