Finding records
France’s archives are extremely rich. The original records often include a wealth of information, missing in online genealogical databases: professions, addresses, religion, names of friends and relatives, military campaigns, health information, cause of death, level of education etc.
We help you locate these records in the French archives and extract information from them.
TRANSCRIPTION
& translation
France's archives are generally in French but they may also be in German - or variants of one or the other language.
Handwriting has also evolved throughout the centuries, making the transcription of the original records sometimes challenging.
We help you transcribe and translate your French ancestors' records.
Research
Whether it is researching the local history of your French ancestors' town or village, conducting genealogical research or going to collect specific documents on your behalf, we can support you.
