Lineage Research helps you investigate one focused family-history question. Our research review team checks every report before delivery.
PEOPLE BEHIND YOUR REPORT
Powerful technology. Expert human review.
Our research review team brings human judgment to every report.
Good research requires more than a plausible answer. Our reviewers examine how the sources support each important conclusion, whether conflicting details have been addressed, and where the evidence remains incomplete.
You receive a report that separates established facts, likely connections, and open questions—so you know what to rely on and what to investigate next.
Family-history research often involves hours of repetitive searching, transcription, comparison, organization, and hypothesis testing. Each task matters. Together, they can put professional help out of reach.
Modern research tools can accelerate many of these tasks. We use that efficiency to make a focused investigation more accessible, without giving up the careful reasoning that makes research useful.
Machines for speed. Evidence for truth. Humans for judgment.
We examine names and spelling variants, geographic context, historical documents, and relationships between sources. Important findings receive human review. An appealing story is never a substitute for a supported conclusion.
Research uses lawfully accessible records and services. We are independent and are not affiliated with Ancestry, FamilySearch, MyHeritage, Findmypast, or other genealogy platforms. We do not ask for your passwords.
YOUR FAMILY STORY, THROUGH HISTORICAL RECORDS
No DNA kit. Just a place to start.
A name, an approximate date, a place, or a family story can give us a starting point. We investigate documentary evidence, so a standard project needs no DNA test, genetic-data upload, or genealogy-account password.
We do not sell personal genealogy information. You can review how we use research tools, retain project records, and handle deletion requests in our privacy policy.
Our proprietary AI, research resources, and human review team work together on your question. We organize the clues, compare identities, examine contradictions, and turn the investigation into a source-cited report you can understand and build on.
You receive the findings, their supporting evidence, and a clear direction for the next step in your family research.
