About this Gig
Starting a historical research project and not sure how to proceed?
I am a professional historical researcher and information-management consultant with 25+ years of experience in historical and documentary research, including litigation-related, archival and genealogical work.
I will review your answers to my project questionnaire, assess your research objectives and conduct preliminary research into relevant repositories and collections to develop a targeted research plan.
Depending on your package and project complexity, your plan may include research questions, source types, repositories or collections, search strategies, priorities, sequencing, gaps, limitations and recommended next steps.
Please note: This service develops the plan; it does not include conducting the underlying historical research. It is based primarily on your questionnaire responses. Supporting documents are not normally required. Please contact me before ordering if documents need review or if your project is complex, specialized or litigation-related.
Suitable for historical, genealogical, organizational, community and documentary research.

FAQ
What will I receive?
You will receive a written research plan tailored to your project and package level. It may include research questions, potential sources and repositories, search strategy, priorities, sequencing, gaps, limitations and recommended next steps.
Will you conduct the historical research?
No. This Gig is for research planning. I conduct preliminary repository and collection research as necessary to develop your plan, but I do not conduct the underlying historical research as part of this service.
Do I need to send you my research files?
Usually not. The service is designed around your answers to the project questionnaire. If you believe supporting documents are necessary for me to understand the project, please contact me before ordering.
Can you help with genealogy or family history?
Yes. My professional training includes genealogical studies, and I can develop research plans for family-history projects as well as broader historical research.
Can you guarantee that the recommended records exist or will answer my questions?
No. Historical records may be incomplete, inaccessible, lost or never created. A research plan provides a logical, efficient strategy based on the information and resources identified when it is prepared.
Can you help with legal or litigation-related historical research?
Potentially. I have extensive experience with historical research and documentary collections associated with litigation. Please contact me before ordering because these projects may require a different scope. This will not and does not include any legal advice.
