So Covid-19 has engulfed our world for the last few months; and it seems the near future; so what are you doing with your time??
I have decided to re-brand and re-imagine myself, my company and my office! Not necessarily in that order. Stay Tuned, I am hoping to relaunch a complete website with blog in the next couple of months, I will show off my before and after of the office and share some organization tips. In the midst of all of this, scanning, scanning photos, documents and digitally organizing them all! Loving every minute!

I normally avoid anything political, but this change in policy will affect our Genealogical businesses tremendously! If you are looking for Immigration records in the USA for the 20th century, access to them is about to be prevented! Currently to get the actual documents - they are going from $130 to $600; we are asking you to please make your comments heard in the next two weeks - at Records Not Revenue. Please help us keep access to these valuable records!

U.S. Citizenship & Immigration Services (USCIS) wants to raise fees by 492% for copies of historical records — charging researchers up to $625 for a single paper file.
