Costs

All research is charged at £10 per hour plus the costs of certificates etc if required. All research is well documented for source material. Genealogical research is notoriously difficult to predict final costs but an average one name search going back to late 1700's early 1800's is likely to be in the region of £200 - £250 plus certificate costs. Obviously the more information that is supplied will significantly reduce the final cost. A limit will always be agreed in advance.
