Title: Stirling Genealogist Recommendations?
Post by: Martin109 on Saturday 30 August 14 19:02 BST (UK)
I'm planning a brief visit to Stirling in October (sometime between 20 and 24 Oct), and would like to consult with a local genealogist about some specific questions to do with the Sawers family tree that I'm working on.

Does anyone have any recommendations of good local genealogists?  Of course, this might be you, so please do not hesitate to recommend yourself!

I have very little idea about the appropriate hourly fee to expect to pay a genealogist for their work.

If you post your specific queries about the family here, someone on Rootschat may be able to help you answer them or point you to the correct sources.

Thank you, GR2.

I've actually already done that -  here (http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=576330.msg4285615#msg4285615) - but did not get a reply to the question itself.

Perhaps I'll re-present it, in the hope that it'll catch a fish this time!

Hi Martin

Your last post there was in 2012, new resources are always becoming available and there are people joining us all the time. Someone may be able to add something extra.

If you do start a new topic, please make sure you include a link to the work already posted to prevent duplication of effort.

Good luck

Dawn
