I'm a genealogist and family historian, researching and writing since 1999. I've (finally) written articles for genealogy publication, and could use a seasoned writer, researcher, or editor with professional genealogical writing experience to check my work. Particular focus on citations is needed.

I am looking for a genealogist or a researcher who knows their way around finding records hard records to find. I have inquired several different people on Upwork or Fiverr and it seems like nobody wants to put in the effort but people always want money.

I am looking for my great-grandfather Dave Campbell's mother and father. I have hired a couple of genealogists here who did an awesome job with past research. Unable to hire them again because either it wasn't a great fit the first time and I just went with it and gave them the benefit of the doubt or they could not provide me with the records that I needed and I had to request refunds back halfway through the research, I was not informed that they didn't have the experience and that they were just doing this for the first time which caused me to bring down my price.

I am researching this but I'm stuck and would like to get some assistance with trying to find my great-grandfather's mother and father. I have a delayed death certificate and I have my grandma's death certificate. This person should be familiar with Arkansas and be familiar with Bradley Warner County Arkansas Johnsville.

I ask please be honest when you are considering this gig. I know everybody in the world needs money right now everybody is working to get money but that does not mean taking advantage of a person who needs help. If you don't have experience please let me know I might just go ahead and let you do the gig. But may have to lower the price slightly.

If you are inexperienced please do not ask for more money, I have had this happen to me and I don't appreciate it. People who work in the real world with real jobs get paid more for their experience. And if you are experienced then it is negotiable depending on how much information you find. But I am only starting off at $200 and that is the highest I will go so please do not bid way higher. This gig is a short gig and if you are good at what you do you should be able to find information really fast. there was a great genealogist on here and she found amazing information. And as of recently, she's not on here anymore but if you do the work you will get paid.

I have been doing genealogy for the last 12 years and have talked to lots of genealogists in my lifetime, so I know how much a genealogy research would charge and I know how much the whole process would be.

thank you.
