D&C Research Group offers the following services:

• Records Look-ups: This simple service is offered for those who wish to find their ancestor in a particular record or record set where the locating information (e.g. book and page number) is already known, or can be narrowed down greatly.
• Research Plans: For researchers who have spent time researching a family or individual, are uncertain where to look next, and who would like to perform the actual research themselves. We work closely with the client to pinpoint problem areas and gaps in research, and to develop a formal plan of action using a variety of record sets.
• General Research: More complex problems often require an experienced researcher to solve. These include in-depth research using a wide variety of records, overcoming brick walls, researching border families, finding maiden names, and locating the state-side origins of local families.

For all research, excepting records look-ups, we ask potential clients to forward all pertinent research on the subjects under study. This step is necessary in order to avoid the costly duplication of previous research. For records look-ups, exact information (or as exact as is possible) should be given to facilitate the process.

Each type of research has its own fee scale, which we set based on the type and depth of research needed to solve the problem at hand. Some research (e.g. look ups) may require additional fees for certified copies, photocopies, postage, and other incidentals. All fees and payment modes are outlined in the initial contract.
