Research Roots is an independent research company specialising in family history and probate research. We also offer support to filmmakers, authors and academics and other types of bespoke research. Whether you are just beginning to look into your ancestry, an experienced researcher with a particular puzzle to solve, or interested in commissioning a piece of original research, we offer a variety of research services designed to meet your needs, including beautifully presented gift packages and tokens. Research Roots also works with legal professionals to solve the problems of intestacy. We locate heirs to the estates of people who have died without leaving a will or known relatives, trace beneficiaries of wills, owners of land, shares and other assets.
