Welcome - what can I help you uncover?

My name is Nicola Hallam. I am an experienced professional genealogist and researcher based in Lincolnshire who loves nothing more than digging up stories about people from the past. I have been carrying out genealogical research for over 20 years. I am a member of the Register of Qualified Genealogists and an Association of Genealogists and Researchers in Archives (AGRA) Associate. I have carried out research for the BBC's Who do you think you are.

I can help you uncover your family history and draw up a family tree - get in touch - our first meeting is free - nicola@familyhistorydiggers.com

I also offer talks on genealogy, poaching and Lady Dorothie Feilding so if you are in Lincolnshire and need a speaker please get in touch.

Have a look around my website and then let's have a chat about how I can help you.
