Genealogical Research
I offer several different types of genealogical research such as:
- Saskatchewan Records Search
- Saskatchewan Homestead Records Search
- Canadian Military Records Search
- Single Index/Database/Archives Search
- Genealogical Photography
- Service Record Binder
- Custom Searches
Each search type comes with a, free no obligation consultation, written research report and with copies of any documents or photos I can find and obtain. The only exception is the Single Index/Database/Archives Search, results from that search will be emailed to the client. Most copies of documents and photos can be emailed to a client in PDF or JPEG form, but some cannot. (Research Reports are sent in PDF form unless the client specifies otherwise). I do offer paper copies of documents for an additional fee. For custom searches please contact me so we can come up with a research plan that fits your needs.
I look forward hearing from you.
