Bespoke Family Trees and Crests

Some clients may wish to take that journey a couple of steps further. We can create custom family tree scrolls which can be customised according to the client's wishes. We also can design family crests and adapt old ones as well.

House Histories

This is an in-depth study into the history of your house. Included in this service is a history of the neighbourhood, the street, the house and the fascinating stories of the people who lived there before you.

House Histories

Have you ever wondered who was living in your house 100 years ago? We have found police constables, door-to-door salesman, politicians, bricklayers, boatmen, and even a sports journalist – in just one house!

 

From Research to Hardback

Once you have had your house’s history researched - we collate the most interesting parts of the history and create a hardback book - perfect for a coffee table!
