Not Your Typical Genealogists

Tree Shakers Research leaves no stone unturned and works “outside the box” for clients, continually adding beneficial services, such as procuring DNA test results and helping to secure paperwork for citizenship internationally. Each research package is tailormade for the client. Special requests, such as DNA testing, can be facilitated, as well as travel for on-site inspection of documents, cemeteries, archival and land records.

Our research is thorough and specific according to client need. With a strong work ethic, and careful attention to detail, we operate with a high degree of moral responsibility and a heart to serve our clients to the best of our ability.

Our Packages

Our research time has been categorized into the Ambassador, the Noble, and the Royal research packages so you may clearly understand what you will receive and choose the right plan for your needs. We also offer a la carte services, charged by a fee or by the hour.

The Ambassador package is best suited for research on ONE TO FOUR INDIVIDUALS.

The Noble package gives a little more time for placing ancestors in a PEDIGREE (family tree) project.

The Royal package is designed for more comprehensive and detailed research to trace LINEAGE farther back in history.

All packages can be customized to include the type of information you desire. We are happy to adjust our focus to meet your family history goals.
