FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Your initial consultation with me by email or phone is free. Most genealogical research and reporting work is $25 per hour plus agreed upon expenses.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Either by email or phone, the customer and I agree on what the genealogical research question is that the customer wants explored. S/he agrees to share whatever research s/he might have already done on it so that I don't duplicate her/his efforts and waste my time and her/his money. After we agree to and both sign a contract, I begin work.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
By the beginning of May 2016, i will have completed the Boston University Certificate Course in Genealogical Research. I am currently working on the Professional Learning Certificate in Genealogical Studies in American Records with the National Institute on Genealogical Studies of the University of Toronto. I hold a PhD from Vanderbilt University.
