At Ichthus Family History, our Oxfordshire-based genealogist will trace your family history for you, helping you to understand your family’s unique story.

Our family history is an important part of each of us, whether our ancestry is grand and aristocratic or founded in the working classes of the agricultural and industrial past. Knowing where we have come from helps to put into perspective where we are now, both individually and as a society. But often these important stories can be lost either through war and separation, or simply a lack of communication when the chance was there.

A skilled and professional genealogist can help rebuild and understand that past, joining the dots and adding the historical context that a monthly subscription to a website could never achieve, and often at a lower cost over time than those services.
