Carolyn Alderson

I provide professional genealogical research services which can help you find your ancestors in the UK, break down brick-walls you've hit in your own research, uncover details of specific family members, build back your family tree, and provide local historical and social context to family histories or for particular ancestors.

I'm a Member of the Register of Qualified Genealogists (RQG)  and a Member of the Association of Genealogists and Researchers in Archives (AGRA), both professional accrediting bodies in the UK. I'm committed to continuing professional and academic development supporting genealogical and family history research. I've been working as a professional genealogist since April 2019.

I'm familiar with online genealogical sources relating to East Anglia, England, Wales, Scotland and also Ireland, Canada, USA, France and Australia, which can help with migration inquiries into and out of the UK.  I may help with Ancestry DNA match inquiries. 

I live close to Cambridge University library and college archives, and to Cambridgeshire, Huntingdonshire and Suffolk county archives, so can access, research and assess original sources not available online/digitized if your ancestors lived in this neck of the woods.  London is easily accessible, and I'm willing to travel to other archives in the UK to fulfill your research project.

I offer a free consultation meeting, so just get in touch to progress your interest and receive a quotation for your unique research brief.
