"Diane Henriks has changed my life! She found my birth father in a very short time after I had struggled for years looking at Ancestry.com. Diane is a master of her profession! Not only did she find my father but traced back multiple generations. I am forever indebted to her."
- Bend L.
"I spent countless hours for years looking for an ancestor who had dna. I gave this to Diane and by the next day she was able to compile a complete tree that even contained contact information should we want to pursue with living relatives. I cant say enough good things about the owner of this service.
She doesn't waste time. She's a magician!"
- Earlene G.
"My father is 70 years old and was adopted at a very young age from Japan. For all of this time, it has been a mystery as to who his father was. Me and my siblings are in our 20s and thought it was finally time to hire a professional and see what we could uncover. Within a very short time of emailing her, Diane responded to us almost immediately and was eager to help. Since we had such limited information, we held our breaths in case there wasn't enough to work with. To our surprise (and delight), Diane found my biological grandfather within the same weekend! She was thorough and informative at every step, keeping us updated and explaining what she was doing. She went above and beyond to help us and it has been eye-opening to know our ancestry after all of this time! We highly recommend Diane and will always be grateful for the work she did for us. 10/10! Thanks for all of your efforts!"
- Taylor N.
"I HIGHLY recommend Diane to anyone tracing their ancestry or trying to locate a long lost relative. I consider myself to be pretty good at doing my own research but I kept hitting walls and needed a professional. Besides the standard genealogy search, Diane truly went above and beyond and also did DNA research, as well as living people search. After 61 years of not knowing much about my Grandfather or ever even seeing a photo of him, I am beyond thrilled to be able to tell my Mother that I found her biological Father and he is STILL ALIVE! Thanks to Diane for giving my family this gift after just 2 days of working diligently!!! There is no way I could've gotten this far on my own. She is simply amazing...professional, sharp, personable and funny too. So happy to have found her!!!”
