My fees will vary depending on the services which you request.
Research Services
For any services where research is necessary, prices start at $25 per hour. This includes lineage research, document retrieval where data is unknown, etc. One hour is the base fee. I will only charge more if the service takes more than an hour. However, I do require a deposit of 20% of the total, with a minimum of $25, if more than one hour is required. I will work within any client's budget, though results may vary depending on the available resources. If unforeseen circumstances necessitate a higher cost than expected, after work has begun, I will notify the client prior to continuing.
In general, I will not charge any travel expenses within the state of Maryland or Washington, D. C. Please contact for any research necessary outside of this area.
Document Retrieval/Transcription Services
For any services where no research is necessary, such as transcription or specific document retrieval, prices start at $5/document, plus actual copy costs. Transcription will be a flat rate of $5 per document. I will discount larger orders at the rate of 5 documents for $20.
Photographic Services
Cemetery photography will cost $10 per photo or cemetery. This price includes a CD-ROM with the photos on it, and one page of prints. The print package can be any configuration of sizes that fits on one 8-1/2 by 11 page.
Photographic restoration will range between $20-30 per photo, depending on the degree of restoration required. This price includes a CD-ROM with the photo on it, and two pages of prints. The print package can be any configuration of sizes that fit on one 8-1/2 by 11 page.
Payment Options
I can accept checks or money orders sent through the mail, or credit cards through Paypal only.
