About Me

I was an amateur level genealogist for a decade before I pursued my passion into further education and completed my Masters degree in Genealogy, Palaeography and Heraldic Studies at the University of Strathclyde.

My own heritage is English and Portuguese, but I also have a good deal of experience with Scottish records thanks to my husband's ancestry.

I am based in the North West of England, but work with sources throughout the UK, with particular experience with London records and the surrounding counties. I specialise in transcription work and palaeography (reading very old handwriting), which I am happy to do in isolation or alongside family tree work.

I use a huge range of sources in my research, primarily online and through local archives. My experience has shown me that an open-minded approach is always best and I will leave no stone unturned to help you find the answers that you are looking for.

Expect a thorough and thoughtfully presented piece of work which you will be able to keep and share with your family.
