Genealogy Review & Rescue

Already have a family tree but aren’t sure whether everything fits? Reedistry can review existing research, identify weak or unsupported connections, evaluate conflicting records, and help determine the strongest path forward.

Family Tree Review — Starting at $125

A focused review of an existing family tree or branch, including key relationships, supporting records, obvious conflicts, and areas where additional evidence may be needed.

Genealogy Rescue Project — Starting at $295

For trees that need more than a review. Reedistry examines problematic branches, conflicting information, duplicate identities, unsupported relationships, and available records to help repair and strengthen the research.

You’ll Receive:

  • Tree & Evidence Review
  • Identification of Weak or Conflicting Connections
  • Source Assessment
  • Written Findings
  • Recommended Corrections & Next Steps

Larger projects requiring substantial new research may be better suited to Family Mysteries & Brick Walls or a Family Tree Research package.

Family Mysteries & Brick Walls

Some family questions don’t fit neatly into a family tree. Reedistry follows the clues when identities are uncertain, records conflict, relatives seem to disappear, parentage is unknown, or a family mystery has remained unresolved for years.

Mystery Review — Starting at $125

A focused review of the information, records, and clues you already have, with an assessment of what may be possible and recommended next steps.

Focused Mystery Research — Starting at $395

Research into one clearly defined family-history question using appropriate genealogical, historical, directory, newspaper, and archival sources.

Complex Family Mystery Research — Starting at $750

For difficult cases involving multiple people or generations, conflicting identities, unknown parentage, institutional or court records, adoption-related research, missing records, or extensive evidence reconstruction.

You’ll Receive:

  • Written Research Report
  • Evidence Analysis
  • Source Documentation
  • Timeline or Relationship Reconstruction when appropriate
  • Findings, Conclusions & Recommended Next Steps

Specialized Research Services

Military Research & Legacy

Every military record tells part of a larger story. Reedistry can help uncover service records, units, locations, campaigns, medals, burial information, and other evidence — and, when desired, turn those discoveries into a narrative your family can preserve.

Military Record Review — Starting at $195

A focused review of records, documents, photographs, or military information you already have, with identification of likely sources and recommended next steps.

Military Service Research — Starting at $395

Research into one individual’s military service using available draft, enlistment, service, casualty, pension, burial, unit, newspaper, and other historical records.

Military Legacy Story — Starting at $795

Transforms military research, photographs, records, family memories, locations, units, medals, and historical context into a professionally written and designed account of a loved one’s service.

Final pricing is confirmed after a free project review.

You’ll Receive:

  • Research Summary or Written Narrative
  • Military Timeline
  • Source Documentation
  • Available Supporting Records
  • Historical Context
  • Recommended Next Steps when additional records may exist

Larger military-history books or projects involving multiple generations are quoted individually.

DNA & Identity Discovery

DNA matches can open doors that traditional records cannot. Reedistry helps make sense of match patterns, family relationships, documentary evidence, and family trees to explore biological connections and unresolved identity questions.

DNA Results Review — Starting at $195

A focused review of your existing DNA matches, known family information, and available family tree to identify meaningful patterns, likely relationships, and recommended next steps.

DNA Relationship Research — Starting at $395

For questions involving a particular match, branch, or suspected family connection. Combines DNA evidence with genealogical records and family-tree research to evaluate the most likely relationship.

DNA Identity Discovery Project — Starting at $750

For more complex questions involving unknown parentage, adoption-related research, biological family identification, multiple match groups, or extensive documentary reconstruction.

You’ll Receive:

  • DNA Match Analysis
  • Relationship Assessment
  • Genealogical Research as appropriate
  • Source Documentation
  • Written Research Summary
  • Findings & Recommended Next Steps

* Final pricing is confirmed after a free project review. DNA testing costs, if needed, are separate. Results depend on available matches, records, and evidence, and a particular biological relationship or identity cannot be guaranteed.

Family Connection Research

Sometimes genealogy leads beyond the past. Reedistry can research family lines, reconstruct relationships, identify possible living branches of a family, and help clients understand how people may be connected using genealogical, historical, and publicly available evidence.

Family Connection Review — Starting at $125

A focused review of the family information, names, records, and clues you already have, with an assessment of likely connections and recommended next steps.

Family Connection Research — Starting at $395

Research into one clearly defined relationship or family branch using genealogical records, obituaries, directories, newspapers, family trees, and other appropriate sources.

Complex Family Reconstruction — Starting at $750

For difficult cases involving multiple generations, name changes, incomplete records, conflicting identities, adoption-related questions, or complicated family relationships that require deeper evidence reconstruction.

Every legacy project is unique. Final pricing depends on research depth, number of people or generations, available materials, project length, and printing needs.

Why Every Project Is Different

Every family story is different. Some answers are found quickly in readily available records. Others require following clues through generations, military records, adoptions, DNA connections, lost family relationships, or records that have remained difficult to find for decades.

Because every family story is unique, Reedistry provides personalized estimates rather than one-size-fits-all pricing.
