“By giving Jananne just my Dad’s birth date she unravelled my family story going back several hundred years. Her enthusiasm and passion for helping people discover the missing links in their family story is genuinely impressive. I’m grateful for the in-depth research and piecing together of detailed information that built a picture of who my ancestors were, what they did and what happened to them. Family stories are not always happy ones and when telling some difficult parts of mine she relayed these with sensitivity and care.”
