Genetic Genealogy

Would you like a helping hand?
​
Genetic genealogy is an exciting new field of family history research that combines genetic DNA test results (your 'matches') and traditional genealogy methods to discover how individuals are related.
Your DNA matches may hold key to making new discoveries about your family's past. They can give you hints to guide your research, help you break down genealogy brick walls, connect with new relatives or dig deeper into research you've already done.
Your DNA results can also help you confirm information in your tree.
But what if you don't know how to interpret the results?
​
That's where we can help. We can undertake research for you, or guide you, step by step, through the process yourself.
​
We have significant expertise in genetic genealogy and a proven track record. As an Associate of AGRA you can feel confident that you are working with a trusted professional.
​
If you'd like a helping hand then please contact us.
If you have not already taken a DNA test, we recommend using Ancestry if your focus is family history research. They have the largest database of more than 10 million users as well as the extensive resources of its genealogy website. You can order a test by clicking on the affiliate link below.

How We Work
Payment
We assume you will already have the results of a DNA test available. We will need to access to your DNA matches and family tree. We can explain how to do this if you're unsure.
​
Once we've taken a look at your matches and tree we will be able to agree the scope of the work and provide a quotation. We will provide regular updates on progress, discussing and agreeing next steps with you at each stage.
Our hourly rate for undertaking genetic genealogical research is £30/hr (with a 2 hour minimum order) payable in advance.
​
Payment may be made in GB Pound sterling by bank transfer, debit/credit card or via PayPal.
What Our Clients Have To Say
Andy guided me through the cM estimates and what they mean, and I now have found the missing family members I was looking for.

Thanks so much for what you have done. I am absolutely over the moon. I realise there is still work to be done, but now I do have suspects and more focused continuation of my research.
M. KENT
Really helpful. Andy appreciated my level of previous research, explained options for attempting to solve the mystery and the probability of outcome. He provided a really good amount of detail from his findings and helped me understand the DNA process of linking ancestors and descendants. I would highly recommend Andy.
