Genealogy
Have you thought about researching your family history but don’t know where to start? Are you limited with time and can’t travel to archives. SRA is the UK’s premier genealogy research agency and we can help you with professional research tailored to suit your needs and budgets.

Family history has always been a popular pastime. Following the success of BBC2’s BAFTA nominated Who Do You Think You Are?, which was researched by SRA, more and more people have started to research their family tree. Most people go online, but quickly run into difficulties or miss out on much more information that is readily available in archives. This is where SRA can help. We can put together a research package to help you get the most out of both online resources, and the hidden material lurking in archives, based on our experiences working on the series.


We work at all the London archives and regionally where needed to put together a research package to suit your individual needs.
