Our standard services
Digital Screening
In most of the cases we start our work with a Digital Screening of 10 hours. During this time, we conduct digital research on your Dutch ancestors in various archives, libraries, and other (digital) sources. Although we cannot guarantee any specific results, we have had considerable success with our digital screenings.

Digital Check
Sometimes individuals have already conducted extensive research on their own. However, our experience has shown that the information they have gathered is often incomplete or incorrect. In such cases, we offer a 10-hour Digital Check to review and supplement the information you have already collected.

Search for Photos
Dutch Family Roots can also assist in searching for photos in historical photo banks. Most archives and historical institutes in the Netherlands have (digital) photo banks with millions of historical pictures from the Netherlands. Although most of them are copyrighted, there are also historical pictures in the public domain that are free to use.
