April, 2026: Finding Welsh-Australian Immigrant Ancestors
“I emailed Dai to find out if I had Welsh ancestry. Dai is a lovely open, warm sensitive skilled researcher. We had a great chat for half an hour and discussed the fee for the report. Dai compiled a fantastic report, now my story about 5 generations of my Welsh ancestors. It’s been really exciting! Dai put together many details including many footnotes with hyperlinks as well as photos of the churches where family married. Very special information. Best money I’ve ever spent – so worthwhile. No more wonder if I have welsh heritage! I’m very grateful for the work you have done Dai! I’ll be in touch!”

April, 2025: Researching Labouring Families in Shropshire
“Dai expressed a genuine interest in helping me learn more about an ancestor we had almost no knowledge about. They also pointed me towards resources, research ideas, and history I would have never come to on my own. I am new to this research and feel like I now have a much clearer understanding of my family and the place they came from.”
