Rates - ($52 / Hour + Expenses)
Rates, which are charged by the hour, depend on the circumstances of the research being performed, whether it is research done on contract for a federal agency, companies or private individuals, or editorial services.
We charge a flat-fee lookup rate for a standard report, plus any applicable remote expenses such as certificate/obituary acquisition fees, postage, travel/mileage, or other supplies. If research must go in steps to acquire additional information, We provide periodic report updates as new information becomes available in order to complete or update the standard military soldier and family history report. Beyond this plain and standard format, we also offer a commemorative edition of the report which includes graphics, appropriate unit insignia artwork, soldier or family photographs, gravestone photos, awards information, and other various special details that serves to honor the memory of a soldier's military service or loss. Please provide us with pictures of your loved one and we will also include them in our commemorative book we will build for you as part of this project.
Genealogy and military history research often goes in steps; not every single relevant document is going to throw itself out at the researcher and produce all the answers all at once. While this does sometimes happen, it often does not. This is why it is necessary to have the involvement and assistance of an experienced and professional researcher. It is also important to document and to know where each piece of information is cited with appropriate source. Anyone can participate in family research as a hobby. Many cases contain records that may conflict with others in genealogy research. Sea Service Family, Foundation provides excellent assistance, and the final product will be a unique and special family keepsake that is an orderly, well-sourced, and given in an aesthetically pleasing presentation format.
There are a number of select unique cases where certain critical information is not readily available. Please contact me for a quote today based on any specific case and with the information that you know and information you are able to provide.
