WHAT DOES IT COST TO HAVE ME RESEARCH AND RETRIEVE DOCUMENTS FOR YOU?

I charge $10 per document for marriage, birth and death records. That includes copying  costs and mailing to you. General research is $10 an hour. This would include searching for an obituary or court record amoung other research avenues. There is no charge for any research I can do in my home from my collection of research material.
