The Lady Teviot & Census Searches Ltd

Please read and browse through these pages to see how we may be of help to you in tracing your ancestors or other family members.  We can also help in establishing pedigrees for intestate estates.
My company is Census Searches Ltd, a professional genealogical research company which undertakes research into family history, probate and media research and featured in the very successful second and third series of Heir Hunters on BBC1 television (click to watch an exert from the programme).
I have undertaken lecture tours in Canada and Australia and have also toured South Africa, USA and New Zealand and am accredited speaker for the Surrey and West Sussex W.I’s.  On frequent visits to Australia I have also spoken to the Australian Monarchists' League.

I was the President of the Federation of Family History Societies from 2001 to 2011 and am now a lifetime Vice-President. I was Chairman of the Friends of The Keep Archive from 2009 to 2019 and currently a Member of the Council of the British Records Association.
ONLINE GATHERINGS WITH ZOOM:  ​With regard to Talks, meetings and conferences, these can still go ahead on Zoom, please get in touch to discuss.
 In or out of lockdown ... 'we're good to go!'
Despite the present Covid-19 difficult circumstances genealogy is still flourishing.   Now is perhaps a good time when we are temporarily restricted in our social activities to review family trees and approach old problems with a fresh pair of eyes.
Do please get in touch if I can help you.
