Family tree help.

[theviking51]

Help please. I need to have a family tree done. I dont have much time due to 4 kids, and dont know which route to take? I am low income so cannot afford a pro company. Live in Herne bay Kent,
but my nearest family came from Peckham London area's. Is there Someone here is willing to take this on? plus what charges. I think you will find my family interesting. My dad's side is already done by his USA brother which was massive. Just my mums side i dont have and all of her british family are not in contact anymore, so im in the dark. Thanks

It doesn't have to be time-consuming, but it *can* become addictive.

Write down what you [i]do[/i] know and then use this free site to see if you can start going backwards.

I would be happy to help you make a start on this ....... can you give an email address (maybe a "spare" one rather than your main one)so I can contact you to get some details?

I like you am keen on family history and started with very little to do it with, some sites can be accessed free of charge, the latter day saints have one which is really good, also BMD are free to search. Also as other say any points where you stall, I have found people on this forum really helpful.

Enjoy, its sometimes a bumpy ride but fasinating, found an 19th century met policeman etc on mine.
