Living the Dream
Sometimes I have to pinch myself.
After a long career, and a lot of life, I am now living the dream and working in my own business. I research people's family history and write the story of their unique ancestral journey.

I asked Patricia to do this research for my husband’s 70th birthday. What he thought to be relatively straightforward and mundane turned out to be a great read with some interesting and very surprising details. The presentation of the details made them clear and easy to follow. Thank you Patricia for your professional approach and personal interest.

In our family we’ve always been told that the artist, Augustus John is one of our ancestors, so I knew that Patricia would be exactly the right person to help us find out. We are some way through our family history project and Patricia is an absolute joy to work with. We are looking forward to the next part of the project with Patricia immensely. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Thank you Patricia x

Patricia came to our local WI group and gave a fascinating talk on local documents she had found, what they mean and the history behind them. The talk was very interesting and made personal to our town which made it even more poignant. Thank you so much Patricia, we shall certainly be inviting you back again and highly recommend you to other groups.

Patricia did a wonderful job of detailing my mother’s family tree with very little information to start with. Throughout the journey, her communication was excellent, sending regular updates of findings. The final report and presentation book were incredible, a very lovely surprise for my mother’s 80th birthday. I highly recommend.

My grandfather died before I was born but I wanted to learn more about his service in the First World War. I was delighted with the amount of information Patricia Marks Family Historian was able to find, even though his service record has not survived. This means a lot to me at a time when we are remembering how much we owe to those who served. If you want to discover how your ancestors lived their lives, I thoroughly recommend Patricia as a professional researcher
