What is your pathway to Family History?
“There are so many reasons why you might like to find out about your ancestors. For me it was listening to stories about India from my granny and great aunty. I was hooked from a young age! They talked of a house with a veranda that ran around it, of snakes that slithered over the piano and lizards that left their tails hanging from the pictures after scampering up the walls. It seemed like I listened to exotic tales from a storybook.”
Family Folio Gift
Discovering Heritage Family Folios make unique gifts for any occasions. Our designers and writers can produce a Family Folio and Family Tree with detailed ancestor profiles.
Perhaps you would like help in a particular area of your own research? We can do this too! Stay in control of your finances. You can build and add to your Family History by purchasing our research blocks exactly when it suits you best.
Treasured Mementos
Treasured mementos of our families are often an excellent place to start family history research. By placing personal items into a historical context, we can begin to draw on information to uncover your family history. Details from a census, will, or photograph can begin to shape your genealogy story. We can take this further by looking through a local or national frame of reference and studying newspapers, maps and local records. In this way, we can discover various aspects of your ancestor’s lives. By bringing together information, we can offer a vivid glimpse into your family history.
