We help families preserve their unique stories.


 

1. Tell your family's story in the context of American and world history.

We provide the perspective that history gives. 

What if you could go back in time?

Time moves in one direction. We cannot go back. But . . . 

Imagine walking down a long, straight country road. Where you are, the ten or twenty feet alongside of you, is the present. The future, opening up before you, is out of focus beyond several yards as you trudge, skip, or walk firmly forward. If you care to look behind, your perspective narrows as details that are sharp in recent memory fade to a haze the farther you peer back.
 
Now imagine if you could rise above that road and get a panoramic view of all that exists on either side of your pathway—narrow paths and wide routes that lead to your road and a landscape that extends to the horizons beyond. That aerial view is what history gives. You can see more—you can perceive patterns and tracks, U-turns and dead ends, and directions that seem inevitable from this lofty perspective. You notice how your road is part of a much greater picture. With this panoramic view you lose the details of your story, but you can also note how your journey fits into the overall vista.


2. Tell your family's story accurately.

We preserve the past for future generations.

What if you could travel to the past and meet your ancestors?
 

We write and publish family histories based on careful research that unearths fully authenticated facts about the people you long to know.

Through our research we uncover fascinating evidence and record complete source data so that you can trust the information that we discover.  That responsible documentation forms the foundation for the skillful narration of the lives of your ancestors.


3. Tell your family's story with fascinating detail.

We use today's technology to discover and record your family's history.

What if you could discover details about how your great-grandparents met or how they earned a living, or why they moved from another country or another state?

We use the most up-to-date tools of the Internet and digital records to research your ancestors. Our researchers are highly trained historians who explore census records, city directories, passenger lists, newspapers, and state marriage, birth, and death records. We can find facts that perhaps have been lost—names, dates, and events—because of the passing of family members who had that information. That knowledge can be brought home to you again.

We cross check the data and record source information. We also utilize today’s technology to find images of the people and places your ancestors held dear so that your family history will be illustrated.


4. Tell your family's story for you and your family to keep forever.

We can help you hold your family's history in your hands and in your heart.

What if you could read the story of your family’s life?

We utilize the newly found facts and precious images to create a captivating written narrative that will be cherished for generations.

You will be presented with a beautiful book that will include a complete narrative of your family, starting with the ancestor of your choice, down through the years to the present generation. This volume of your family history will include images of your family and complete citations of all research.
