I just wanted to say a big thank you on behalf of my family.
My Nan was absolutely thrilled with the presentation pack when we gave it to her at the weekend, and the whole family is looking forward to going through the information in more depth to find out more about our ancestors.

I just wanted to thank you for Trevor's family history. He was thrilled and very surprised but he loved it, just seeing it all written down and finding out what all the 'ancestors' were and what they did.
Cherry
I have received the pack and think it is great, thank you very much.

I just wanted to thank you so much for the presentation pack which arrived here on Christmas Eve.
It is so very nice to have the hard copy to look at. We were so interested in all the details of my great Uncle George and his World War 1 war record and untimely death - so much information... absolutely fascinating.
Arriving as it did just before Christmas gave me an idea of the perfect present for my husband next year!
Alexis
We presented the research you carried out so far to my parents on their 50th anniversary. This provided not just great enjoyment and fascination to them but also the extended family
Thank you for your information

I received the pack this morning and wanted to let you know how pleased I am with it. I need to sit and read through it all again as there is so much information to take in. I really like the information on the jobs people had; it provides nice background detail and some idea of what their lives were like.
Thank you for enclosing the army papers for my mum's natural father. We have never had any information about him so simple details like eye and hair colour are particularly useful and I think my mum will be really pleased with these little details.
I think this is going to be a really popular gift and I am so pleased that I made that initial contact with you to see what was possible. I must admit, I did not expect to get so much.
Thank you so much for doing this, I am absolutely delighted!
This may not be the last you hear from me as I am now wondering about doing my father's family.
Anyway, thanks again, off to have another perusal!
Carole
I am absolutely AMAZED at what you have found out! What can I say! Thank you so much, it is truly fascinating! Many snippets match things I remember my Mum telling me. And all those actors and musicians! I am blown away by that. The pages from the censuses are really fascinating.
Marion P

I have just received the family tree presentation pack for the A** family. I am pleased with the results and the work that you have put into it.

I'm just dropping you a line to say thank you for my dad's family tree. He was so pleased with it and the whole family thought it was amazing.
I have passed your details on to my sister who will contact you about researching her husband's family tree.
Alex S
Hello Jane, I just spoke to my Dad and I wanted to let you know that he was absolutely thrilled with the package! In his words, he was 'over the moon' and it has now inspired him to take some time to visit the war memorials where some of his family is buried and other places where they lived.
Thanks again, it made a wonderful birthday present.
Lucy
Wow! Thank you so much!! I can't tell you how pleased I am with your research!!! If you need any more testimonials, just let me know! I'd be happy to sing your praises from the roof tops!!! Please can I return in the future with some more of the things I'm stuck on? I'd so much rather pay you than end up with a headache!!!
