David J. O'Hagan
****************
I offer a family history research service. This service is limited
to conducting family history interviews with Irish family members
and also to the examination and reporting of records and monuments,
e.g. birth, baptism, marriage and death certificates, birth,
marriage and death notices in Irish newspapers, wills and other
documentary sources in Irish repositories, memorial cards and
gravestone inscriptions. I would prefer to confine such work to the
area of Cork City and County but I can go further afield if
required. The family history interviews which I conduct, can be
structured, in conjunction with the client, to bring out any
particular field of information sought. A full transcript of each
interview is provided as part of the service. I can also ask for
and copy family photographs where these are available from
interviewees.

Elizabeth Jack
**************
Your family history is just as important to me as my own. I love
the research - finding the information, solving the mysteries,
learning about the people involved, constructing a family tree and
presenting the results in an attractive form for you. Based in
glorious Gloucestershire, I have a good knowledge of the county and
the surrounding counties, the towns and villages, the buildings and
industry, the traditions and customs. Any local sources will be
searched, whether in libraries, record offices or churchyards.
Copies of original records will be provided where possible.
Photographs can be taken, if required, of your ancestor's home and
village; tombstones can be cleaned and maintained. No commission is
too small or too great. A friendly, reliable service is offered.
