Placing an Order

Please feel free to ring me with any queries and for a no-obligation discussion of how I may be able to help you.

If you decide to place an order with me, I will send you a written summary of the work that you have asked me to undertake, the cost, expected start/completion date, and a full copy of my Terms & Conditions before you place an order. When you have confirmed your order in writing, and made the agreed payment, I will begin the research.

You can be assured of receiving a personal and friendly service at all times. I take a pride in the quality of my work and the standard of my presentation and will make every effort to ensure you are happy with the service you receive.

Payments for the services described on this website are made to Angela Aldam before work begins. I can accept sterling cheques, internet bank transfers or PayPal. VAT does not apply. When buying a Package for yourself, however, payment can be made in installments.

Ancestors not found?

Sometimes an ancestral line will be untraceable in English records due to loss of the archives, illegitimacy, adoption, immigration etc.

Customers paying for research by the hour have the option to discontinue research at any time and receive complete refund of the remaining monies.

For fixed-price Package customers, I offer a refund guarantee - in the unlikely event that none of your ancestral lines can be traced back to the target date, a scaled refund will be given and you will pay only for the work successfully completed.

Family history as a gift

Family Folios standand and heirloom reports both make excellent presents. However, family history research often leads into unpredictable areas, making it impossible to guarrantee a deadline for a surprise gift. The best solution is usually to give the gift recipient a Family Folios Welcome Pack on their special occasion. The recipient uses the Pack to help them gather together what they know. This gives them the opportunity to feel involved with the project from the beginning, and ensures that any areas of particular interest to them are covered. Their memories, photos and family stories can be woven in to bring the story down to the present day. Many of my customers tell me that they really value the opportunity to personalise the project in this way.

I can send the Welcome Pack either to you so that you can present it personally to the recipient, or I can send it directly to the recipient if you prefer. The recipient can then contact me at any time over the next 6 months to confirm that they would like the research to begin, and to receive any help they need in gathering the initial material. Alternatively, if the recipient decides they don't want to proceed for any reason, I will make a full refund to the original purchaser.

~ Testimonials ~

  • I was impressed with the clear and transparent costing throughout the research process and fee estimate from outset.
    - George R. (Bristol)
    .
  • Used Family Folios as Angela was very approachable and understood the brief. The telephone discussion prior to carrying out the research was very useful. Clear reports, charts etc. presented in a clear and professional manner. Particularly like relevant historical background information and explanations on terms used in census forms. Prompt and reliable.
    - David S. (Kent)
    .
  • Inspired by the BBC TV programme "Who Do You Think You Are" I decided to investigate my own family tree. I decided upon Angela's services because she was more than happy to answer the many questions I had before deciding to proceed with the research. I was also impressed with the pricing options available. Payment was also flexible, made over several installments which was very helpful.
    - Rob B. (London)
