Heir Research Client Testimonials
The Ancestry team did an awesome job after my family was confronted with my cousin's death. Unfortunately, she left us without a will or any direct heirs. I knew almost nothing about one side of her family. Ancestry carefully worked with us and was able to build out a family tree and identify more than 50 potential heirs across the country, including contact information, in less than three weeks. They also provided the information in a format we could submit directly to the court, expediting the complicated process of settling the estate. And, as another unexpected-but-positive result, many family members were thrilled to learn how to locate one another after many years apart in some cases.

Thank you again for your hard work.
- Angela B., Florida Estate Matter
The team at AncestryProGenealogists did a wonderful job of finding beneficiaries located in Germany. Armed with only names, they diligently scoured the country until each person was found. In one case, the beneficiary had passed away and they went the extra mile and found his three heirs.
