How It Works & Our Process

We at Dancestors Genealogy have decades of combined experience in conducting thorough and methodical genealogy research in the Houston, TX area, which can be outlined in our simple 4-step process. Our genealogy process provides utmost transparency and professional discretion to our clients throughout the data gathering and archival process. Feel free to get in touch with our Houston genealogy team if you have any questions.

Initial Meeting

Our collaboration begins when we have our first free no obligation conversation about your goals and expectations of the project. Then we take the time to actually get to know our clients and have a clearer idea of what they want to discover about their family history.

Phase 2 - The Hunt

This phase involves fleshing out tree data and beginning the narrative or story documentation. Our genealogy experts in Houston can fully utilize and organize past records, census date, statistical records, and more to help with building your family tree. The challenging work also includes thoroughly going through records in libraries, courthouses, cemeteries, city hall, and more.

Phase 1 - Initial Background Exploration & DNA Submittal

Once we have a clear set of goals, the next step is to gather all of the existing data provided to us about our clients’ family. We will have a trusted genealogy researcher in Houston conduct a set of interviews with you and/or your willing relatives at the most convenient time and place.

Phase 3 - Non Digital Research

This is where we compile the information that have collected in a user friendly format in what we call the Narrative Family Legacy Book (includes gathered documents & pictures of your family.) .

Testimonials

This past year I engaged Dancestors to work on my parent’s family. There had always been scattered pieces of the family tree, but nothing had ever been pulled together in a format that not only made a prized gift but had some great stories that were in danger of being lost forever. This next year Dancestors will be working on my wife’s family.

I was a little concerned when I engaged someone to do the book that lived halfway across the country. That turned out not to be a concern as through email and phone we communicated more effectively with my busy schedule than in person meetings would have allowed. I’d grown up hearing great stories about my family, but they were all disconnected and not well documented. Dancestors researched my mother’s line first and gathered some great stories, including trips across America by wagon train, ancestors who found religions and a long line of English folks.

I wanted to give my mother something special for her 95th birthday. Dancestors worked with me to tell the story of mother’s life and her ancestry through narrative and pictures. It was a bonus when he found overseas information about her families origins in Eastern Europe.

Hi, my name is Nicky. What I was looking for was a way to provide a great gift for my family, but also a way in which we could add pictures and stories as the family grew and as younger generations became interested in “where we came from?”. I grew up thinking my surname was German. Through Dancestors' research, I found out that my surname and roots were English and not German. Dancestors delivered exactly what I was looking for: the bound books and the online access for future additions.

Dan and Andrea, I saw Mom yesterday for the first time in a couple of weeks. She told me how much she loved having Dad's letter in the books; how she could pick them up at odd times of the day and how she had difficulty putting them down; and lastly how they almost always brought tears to her eyes. You should be proud of your efforts and work! What a wonderful Gift! Thank You!
