PROFESSIONAL RESEARCH SERVICES
Move Forward with Confidence
When your own research has stalled, or the records feel overwhelming, professional guidance can make all the difference. I specialize in Maine and New England genealogy, bringing years of experience with regional archives and historical documents to help you find the answers that have remained just out of reach.
This may be a good fit if…
- You’ve hit a brick wall after years of personal research
- Family records are incomplete, conflicting, or hard to interpret
- You need someone who understands Maine and New England archives
- You want documented findings you can trust and build upon
- You’re ready to invest in professional, evidence-based research
How the Research Unfolds
Initial Consultation
We discuss your goals, review what you’ve already gathered, and identify the most promising paths forward.
Focused Research
I work methodically through relevant archives, vital records, land deeds, and historical documents—always following the evidence.
Detailed Findings
You receive a detailed report with source citations, clear conclusions, and recommendations for future research.
Investment
Research is billed at $50 per hour, with most projects beginning at a 10-hour minimum. This allows enough time for meaningful progress while keeping your investment focused. We can always adjust the scope as we go.
