Mike provided me with three searches. I was amazed at the detail he provided including not only a comprehensive family tree but also copies of relevant documents and numerous newspaper articles.
I cannot recommend Mike highly enough.

What a lucky find i made with 'FHS' a complete shot in the dark.
Mike took on board my requirements in searching out my fathers side of my family of which i knew very little.
He kept me informed throughout the process and at completion we met to discuss the outcome.
To say i am delighted with his efforts is no understatement.
He delivered a superb, document which showed my
Family history back seven generations to the mid seventeenth
century all laid out in a superb A4 sleeved folder in fully easy to follow format,
I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone that requires this kind of professional undertaking all at a very reasonable cost, thankyou Mike.

Within 5 mins of talking with Mike he had found more information about my search request than I had managed to find in many months of searching by myself. If you want quick and reliable information there is no better way of finding it than by using the services of Family History Services Harrogate.

Just a follow on from my recent review in December. I am absolutely delighted with Family History Services. I had both my mother and Father's family tree completed and i was amazed at the detail and how far Mike went back into my family history. On my Mother's side, all the way back to 1765. I know that not everyone's family history will be the same but if there's a record of it, Mike will find it. Also, the presentation folder we received was very good and detailed. 100% recommended.

What do you love most about your job?
I love delving into the past of my ancestors and transfer that love into building family tree's for other people. Its not just the "dry" facts but the stories that you can unearth which brings a human aspect to the research.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Starting off as a hobby when I found that my Grandfather had been born in the USA and became more experienced I felt I could offer my services to others who did not have the time or expertise to do their own research.
Why should our clients choose you?
I hope I offer a good value service with a good end product which can be shared around your family and friends and be a delight for future generations.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
My busines is mostly online as the amount of information available is vast but you need to know where to look and how to exploit it, and I have the experience for that.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
All business is conducted online or by phone so there is no personal contact unless a customer lives locally to me.
