I will do a single genealogy record lookup for your ancestor
About this Gig
Need one specific record for one ancestor? I will search for it and send it to you with a full source citation.
Choose ONE record type for ONE person:
- Census record
- Obituary
- Marriage record
- WWI or WWII draft registration card
I'm a professional librarian with a master's in library and information science (MLIS). Genealogy research is my day job: census, vital, and military records, newspapers, and archives.
You get:
- The record image or a full transcription, where sharing is permitted
- A proper source citation
- 2-3 sentences on what the record shows
Please send before ordering if you can: full name, approximate birth/death years, and the place they lived. Even guesses help.
US records only. Records don't always survive - if I can't find it, you get a report of every source searched and my suggested next step, not a made-up result.
Want the full story instead? My main gig does a complete One Ancestor Deep-Dive.
FAQ
What if you can't find the record?
You get a report of every source I searched and my suggested next step. A documented dead end is real research — and records genuinely don't always survive.
Can you look up more than one person?
This gig is one person per order, to keep it fast and affordable. Order again for another ancestor, or see my main gig for a full Deep-Dive.
Do you need my Ancestry password?
No, never. I do my own searching in the records.
Can you research outside the United States?
This lookup gig is US records only.
How fast is delivery?
Basic 2 days, Standard 3 days, Premium 4 days.
