Genealogy & historical research disclaimer
Genealogy is an evidence-based discipline, but historical records are sometimes incomplete, inaccurate, or contradictory.
While I take great care in research and source verification:
- Absolute certainty is not always possible
- Discoveries reflect the best available evidence at the time
- New records may change interpretations in the future
Nothing on this website should be taken as legal, medical, or financial advice.
Photo restoration
Photo restoration services aim to preserve and clarify historical images, not to rewrite history.
I do not invent features, people, or events.
AI tools are only used where appropriate and only to support restoration — not to fabricate likenesses or details.
Results vary depending on the condition of the original image.
Bookings and services
Where services are offered:
- Details, pricing, and timescales will be agreed in advance
- Work does not begin until confirmed
- Any requirements, limitations, or confidentiality concerns will be discussed openly
I reserve the right to decline work that I feel is unethical, inaccurate, or inappropriate.

This site may link to external websites (archives, record offices, tools, or resources). I am not responsible for the content or privacy practices of those sites.
Following external links is at your own discretion.
Limitation of liability
While every effort is made to keep information accurate and up to date, I cannot guarantee that the website will always be error-free or uninterrupted.
I am not liable for:
- Losses arising from use of the site

- Technical issues beyond my control
