Anglia Research Services Ltd

Fantastic experience: I am delighted with the service from Eileen Lavelle at Anglia Research Services in Southport. I found the information provided about my family to be invaluable and she provided me with a lot of information about their history that I never knew. She has been very helpful.

Fantastic experience: My mother died when I was aged 2. I was anxious to learn more of her time in the armed forces in WW2. Miss Sam Watkin of AngliaResearch was both prompt and efficient in helping me. Using the little information I had she was able to obtain my mother’s ATS service records from 1941 in much less time than I anticipated. These have been of great interest when linked to letters between my parents that I recently inherited. I am most grateful and I strongly recommend their services.

Fantastic experience: Carl was extremely helpful and professional throughout the entire process, and kept me informed on how things were progressing. At the end of the process I requested a copy of the family tree information that had been gathered and thank Carl for providing this without delay.

Fantastic experience: Very happy with the service provided by Anglia Research who contacted me regarding a distant relative and I was naturally apprehensive. However Carl Bargh my Case Manager was v professional, efficient and clarified all my worries. I would not hesitate in recommending this company. Thank you.

Fantastic experience: I used Anglia Research to confirm both an adoption and to locate a beneficiary whilst managing an estate. Alex was helpful and clear at all times in our communications, ensuring I fully understood what was possible and what my options were. The actual process of engagement was very smooth and I was shocked at how quickly he came back to me with the requested information. I would highly recommend both the company and Alex, and if I need to use this type of service in future I'll definitely be in touch.

Fantastic experience: I am pleased to recommend Anglia Research, who recently handled a matter for me extremely efficiently. From notification to receipt of the fund distribution took only 10 dys to transfer internationally to me. My especial thsnks to Carl Bargh, Case Manager, who discovered our address even though we had moved from England..

Fantastic experience: A surprise phone call 18months ago from Anglia Research lead me through a fascinating time resulting in a wonderful cheque heading my way. Initially was wondering what was going on as a distant family member had past away and alot of work needed to be done to track beneficiarys down. In stepped the incredible Eileen Butcher from Anglia a dedicated manager ensuring communication was smooth and kept me up to date with the process as the journey came to an end. A special mention also to Nicki Brumby at Wolsey for excellent communication & plenty of documents for signing over the months making my job a doddle Kind regards & thank you Geoff Ormesher

Fantastic experience: Excellent service from Eileen Butcher right the way through the process.

Fantastic experience: I can not Thank Anglia research enough Eileen Butcher was fantastic she talked me through every process and I even got a cheque and more importantly a copy of my family tree which is unbelievable I could never have researched this myself so once again Thankyou thankyou.

Fantastic experience: Eileen was very helpful and responded very quickly to my request for a copy of the family tree. Thanks Eileen!

Fantastic experience: As with many other people it was a bit of a shock to be contacted by Eileen advising that a relative of my mother had died intestate. Hesitant at first it soon became apparent that this was not a scam. Eileen explained the procedure and what paperwork was required from me to make a claim application. Professional throughout and after a lot of hard work from her persuading other relatives to apply the inheritance came through. Never thought anything would come of it but myself and lots of cousins etc have benefitted. Thank you.

Fantastic experience: I guess like most people who receive a call out of the blue from a company like, this instinctively you feel that it must be a scam. Nothing could be further from the truth as members of my family engaged with Eileen Butcher from Anglia who was efficient and respectful in equal measure. Lovely lady

Fantastic experience: Thank you to Eileen Butcher and Anglia research services for there help in tracing myself in regards to a relative who died intestate. The family tree I received was very interesting and has stirred my curiosity to find out more.

Fantastic experience: Diligent, unobtrusive and swift. An excellent company offering a service I had never known to exist. Use with confidence. My contact, Eileen Butcher, was so helpful and knew exactly what to do - I'm very pleased. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: Thank you for finding our "long lost relative". I have been researching my family history for more than 20 years and had no idea that I had another Great Uncle! Excellent service - can highly recommend Anglia Research!

Fantastic experience: A big thank you to Eileen Butcher at anglia research, about a relative that had passed away. Money received was not a big amount, the information about relatives was more important, big thanks again for all you did.

Fantastic experience: So you get a phone call along the lines of "Hello, I'm a Probate Genealogist, a long lost relative of yours has passed away with no Will in force and you may be a beneficiary...." and you can imagine my first thoughts! Thank goodness I did not put the phone down there and then....Eileen Butcher of Anglia Research proceeded to give me information about my family, some of which I knew, but more of which I definitely didn't know! Eileen completely understood my caution about confirming too much too soon, and made sure that I had all her contact details and information before I went away to do my own "due diligence". After a few phone calls to my relatives to confirm the information that I'd been given, and some time clarifying Anglia Research's credentials, as well as some other bits of detective work, it was clear that Eileen's approach was indeed genuine. There then followed a couple of weeks of phone calls and email exchanges with Eileen, each time with new nuggets of information changing hands. It led to fantastic new friendships being forged on the other side of the world with relatives that I previously did not know even existed, and in my opinion, was the real "money can't buy" legacy of our recently deceased family member. Of course, Eileen's remit was to track down all remaining relatives of the deceased person, for the Solicitor who was handling their Estate. As a result, less than a year later, all those long-forgotten and unknown relatives received a share of the residuary estate. The sums involved were not "life-changing", but the newly forged friendships and relationships certainly have been. One result of our journey has been that I have begun collating a Family History which has sprung up many surprising and interesting stories. We've also been able to identify traits that "run in the family", both medical and behavioural. There are not many jobs in this world that literally and actually change people's lives for the better, but Probate Genealogists definitely fall under this list. That first phone call takes you down a rabbit hole where you discover some wonderful things. So, if you are reading this review because you've had a call from Anglia Research, and even better, if you've had a call from Eileen herself, you are in for a journey of discovery and surprises, with a professional who also has a great sense of humour laced in with tact and diplomacy. Very happy to highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Exceptional Service :)

Fantastic experience: I was contacted by this company in february regarding an unknown relative who had passed 7yrs ago, the lady who contacted me Eileen Butcher gave me so much family history that i realised this had to be genuine. Yesterday less than 5 months after initial contact I recieved a cheque for £194.70 , what a pleasant surprise for something that cost me nothing, not only that but the lovely lady is also sending me info on my family tree...the real icing on the cake!! Thank you so much Eileen Butcher and Anglia research, I would definitely recommend your services.

The research was in connection with a deceased relatives estate.The money involved was small but it intriguing situation to be in. If I required Family research done in the future I wouldn't hesitate to use Anglia research to act for me.

Fantastic experience: I was contacted by Eileen Butcher a few weeks ago. She is an extremely friendly person to speak to. She listened to me as well as explaining the facts and processes until I understood fully. Nothing was too much trouble. She displayed a great deal of empathy and understanding of my particular circumstances. She was very professional but personable as well, making my experience with Anglia very pleasant and financially rewarding. She must certainly be a huge asset to your team of case workers. I wish her and all colleagues very best wishes. Maureen Garlick

Fantastic experience: I had the pleasure of being contacted by Anglia Research, who were tracing a distant relative. Eileen Butcher carried out the research, and I found her to be very personable, friendly and professional. I was delighted to recently receive a cheque from the estate, once all of the enquiries had been completed. Eileen has also kindly offered to send me a copy of the genealogical research. I have no hesitation in recommending this company, for their skills in probate genealogy.

Fantastic experience: Very professional

Fantastic experience: Sam Watkin has been a very valuable help with my family research. She used our local community facebook page to find me from a cold case she was working on. As a result I will have a family tree to work from which is priceless to me and my family. Sam continues to provide instant support, help and encouragement constantly. We can't thank her enough for all her excellent work.

Fantastic experience: I have worked with Chris Ferry and the team at Anglia Research in my professional capacity for quite a number of years now and find the service that Chris provides absolutely exemplary! I would strongly recommend the services of Anglia Research to anyone - they are outstanding!

Fantastic experience: I would recommend Anglia research to you as they are very professional in what they do, Carl Bargh was my case manager, he kept me Informed with every step of the way of the case and I found him to be very informative and sensitive to the case in hand, all in all I'm very satisfied with the way our case was handle and I would recommend this company to you...thank you Carl

Fantastic experience: Hi, I don't usually write reviews (lazy), however want to say a massive thanks to Sam Watkin and everything she did for me, what a wonderful person and so easy to get along with.

Fantastic experience: Excellent service provided by Eileen Butcher always dealt very efficiently and promptly with any questions I had nothing seemed too much trouble, very satisfied with the whole experience.

Fantastic experience: Just wanted to say a very big thank you to Sam Watkin for all her professionalism, expertise and kindness. I will be forever grateful.

Fantastic experience: Eileen Butcher is an outstanding employee! She is friendly, personable, and cares about helping you. Anglia Research and Eileen did a remarkable job of locating me in the U.S. after the death of a relative. Eileen explained the lengthy Probate process and I feel like I have a competent guide through it. A plus was finding out about my roots! The process is ongoing; however I am confident that it will be positive thanks to Eileen's support.

Fantastic experience: I have been extremely impressed with the efficiency and courtesy of Anglia Research, and especially Eileen Butcher, and would happily recommend both to anyone who, like me, had correspondence from several different genealogical research companies, and didn't know which one to instruct. From experience I would say "go with Anglia!".

Fantastic experience: Eileen is always helpful and seems to have a wealth of information at her fingertips.

Positive experience: Excellent service and much speedier than expected

Fantastic experience: Oliver great at explaining and answering our questions
