Did you know that millions of genealogy records are NOT available on the Internet?

Many people are unaware that many important records which are crucial to their family tree search cannot be
found online
. Many Delaware records, for example, are only available to researchers who physically visit
repositories at the local level in Delaware, at the federal level in Washington, D.C., or at the LDS Family History
Library
in Utah, and are not readily available on the internet. Our genealogy researchers have access to all
of these records and are ready to assist you with your genealogy search
in Delaware.

  So, if you have limited your past family tree research to exhaustive
internet searches at Ancestry.com, Rootsweb, and other online databases
and web sites, you may have reached a brick wall because you're missing
out on the literal gold mine of records available to our genealogists on
microfilm, in books, and in other published works at these important locations. Many genealogical records related to your ancestry search,
important records like family wills, court records, obituaries, death
certificates, military records and land deeds are not available online and
can only be obtained by mailing research requests to places like local public libraries or cemeteries, or by visiting the LDS Family History Library in
Utah. These records are critical to any comprehensive ancestry search and
 should not be overlooked if high quality and thorough research results are
 to be achieved during your project. For these and other reasons, it's
sometimes a great idea to hire a professional genealogist to assist you
with your genealogy search.
