Family Trees and Crests

We all carry, inside us, people who came before us.

Family Trees

We investigate your family tree thoroughly and diligently.

We look into newspaper archives, national census archives, prison archives and many more smaller archives.

Depending on what you are looking for we can follow from 1 to 4 lines of your family tree, as well as explore a particular ancestor profile, or a female family tree line.

The journey of finding out about your family history and where you come from can be an emotional one.  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.

We can offer clients a wide range of different materials and inks as well as custom designed calligraphy and notation. Whether this service would be for personal use or as a present for a relative,  a scroll can preserve your ancestry for generations to come. 

Once the investigation into your family history has reached a finishing point,  you may wish to preserve the information that has been gathered on a custom-made family scroll.

Family Crests

Family crests are both useful and a testament to the legacy of your family heritage. This service includes to options - firstly, if you would like a shield of your family that you know already exists, then we can replicate the design and tailor it to your preferences. Alternatively, if you would like to start a new legacy with a new family crest, we also design brand new shields and can register them with the College of Arms.

A crest can then be used in many capacities - as a design for a signet ring, a wooden shield, embossed on paper or simply as a way of embroidering a family scroll. All of these options establish the permanence of your heritage for the future.
