How long does it take?

We cannot say that the search process will be quick and easy. It often depends on different factors, such as: whether your ancestor lived in a village or a small town, or a big city, how common the family name was, his/her mobility, etc. Usually it takes about three months. You will be kept regularly and fully informed on our progress during the entire research.

Genealogical research

If you are looking for information on your ancestors from Czech republic, we can do a detailed archival search for you. Our researchers always strive to assist those now living beyond Czech republic in tracing their ancestral roots and are prepared to consider any request. We can find documents on your ancestors, obtain copies and translate them into English or another language, if requested.

Location of lost relatives

We locate lost relatives, reconnect families torn apart more than 50 years ago, and learn the fate of missing loved ones. We also locate lost relatives in Slovakia.

Probate research

We locate missing or unknown heirs, beneficiaries in Czech republic entitled to estates abroad and provide authentic records to substantiate the entitlement. We also conduct probate research in Czech republic and Slovakia. This service has been mainly designed for solicitors, trust officers, lawyers, executors and other professionals. Please note that we charge on an hourly basis. Our fees are based on time spent and expenses incurred with prearranged budgets.
