FAQ'S
HOW MUCH WILL IT COST?
As shown on our menu pages, the cheapest is a starter package of £95 plus postage and packing where required.  This is a great way to start.  If you then want more we can either upgrade you to the more extensive packages or leave it for you to continue.
WHAT CONSTITUTES RESEARCH?
Kinnections will research using government census, Â electoral rolls, birth, Â death and marriage indices and other historical records as appropriate. Â All of which will be documented in a detailed report to substantiate our findings. Any particular certificates that you require or to enable us to continue with research can be obtained for an additional cost. Â This will be discussed with you prior to purchase.
WHAT INFORMATION IS NEEDED PRIOR TO STARTING?
All we require are some simple facts about your family to get us started e.g. names of parents/grandparents/siblings (married and maiden names if known) date and place of birth, marriage, and death. Â Kinnections will send you an email with a questionnaire to fill out and return. Just send us an enquiry and we can send the questionnaire by return.
WHAT WILL I RECEIVE?
Kinnections will provide you with a report showing full ancestry details according to the package, a timeline and copies of the relevant Census and Birth, Death and Marriage records. Â We will also provide a family tree chart. Â This can be framed at an additional cost.
HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE?
This depends on the package chosen.  The simple Taster package should take four weeks. The more extensive Main should take 8 weeks and the Banquet package will take longer depending on information available.  Kinnections will always keep you updated with progress by email on every package.
HOW ACCURATE ARE YOU?
As shown in our terms and conditions Kinnections endevour to be as accurate as possible. However, you must be made aware that Government records are only as good as the people who wrote them.  In many cases  inaccuarcies due to human error have arisen due to the misspelling of names and even age dates shown in the census forms.  This can be misleading , but we endeavour with the help of other data, to combat this and determine the true historical path of your ancestors. If you were to find an inaccuracy then we will rectify this immediately without cost.
HOW FAR BACK CAN YOU GO?
Our packages allow us to go back to the early 1800's this will probably give you six generations. Â In some cases we may be able to go even earlier.
