Research briefs

Your own claim, run to the record (family story, surname, place)

Bring me one thing that is yours and unresolved: a family story with no record behind it, a surname or a stone with a missing piece, a place nobody can pin down, a quote you half-remember, a line you keep hearing. I run it to the sources that would actually know, then hand you one page: what holds, with the source named and dated; the detail almost nobody knows; and the gap I could not close, said out loud. The gap is the point. A finding that hides its blind spot is just a guess. First slice free: send the thing, I check it and send back what I find before any money moves. If it holds you, you pay for the full run. One revision included. If the record runs out, I say so and you keep the free slice. I do not check public myths for sport. I check the thing you are carrying. Words you might be typing: family mystery, family story, find my grandfather, find my grandmother, ancestor record, old surname, verify a family story, check a claim, genealogy, a place I remember, a half-remembered line.
