"Genealogy without documentation is mythology"
I only research actual documents at the Franklin County Court House and information that can be verified.  I have many years experience researching and I have transcribed about 20 books from old records. References upon request.
Most research at the courthouse can be handled in 1-2 hours, depending on the scope of the request and the records available.
I also have a file of the Franklin County records in the Archives in Richmond that would be of interest to Franklin County researchers.
Research charge is the same.
