of Congress
), and a third team of researchers who work full time at the LDS Family History Library in Salt Lake

 since it consists of literally billions of genealogy records from all parts of the globe, making it the largest and most
 important collection of genealogical information available in the world. Included in the Family History Library's
 collections are literally millions of genealogical

about our genealogists and our unique
family tree research services.

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 Plymouth County records, for example, are only available to researchers who
physically visit repositories at the local level in MA, at the federal level in Washington, D.C., or at the LDS Family
History Library
in Utah. Our genealogy researchers have access to all of these records and are ready to assist you
  with your genealogy search in Massachusetts.

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 generally 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.
