The trouble with transcripts...

We have found that we are receiving major interest in the genealogy side of our business; Heir Line (www.heir-line.co.uk) so a brand new sample is required. We've developed links with a book binder who is creating a bespoke design for our personalised books. With this in mind, our head genealogist Mike has set about creating a report for his own family, with one rule: only recorded information is allowed in it, no hearsay, no assumptions, just the facts. The trouble is, the no assumptions rule requires dilligent checking of transcribed records, as Rochfords can easily becomes Rockfords, as has just been discovered. Mind you, this is the person who read Rev. Fr. Howard, and blurted out: "Oh, I wonder if this vicar was called Frankie", before ashamedly trudging off into the corner.

We've got a fantastic offer on at the moment, you tell us the names of your grandparents, and for free, we'll aim to tell you theirs. Drop us an email, you'll be surprised to hear that we also throw in address and occupation details... but don't delay, because we won't!
