How Mearba Kanfot Haaretz genealogy is different than other Genealogy research companies.

Others will charge you $90/hour for research and require a committment of 20 hours or more, up front.
The focus of these 'professional' genealogists is to find records from your ancestors so that you can learn their names, and where they came
from.
Mearba Kanfot Haaretz does that as well, but at about half the cost with no expensive committment up front.
But that's not the main thing. The main thing is that Mearba Kanfot Haaretz does what other companies do not do -- we find your cousins --
your blood relatives living in your country, or living elsewhere. We will provide you with phone numbers, e-mail addresses or social media
profiles of your ACTUAL LIVING COUSINS so that you can call them, or if you like, we will call them on your behalf and explain the validity of
the relationship between the two of you.
What is our method.
First off -- the first hour is free. Your first hour of research is always free -- and the goal of that hour is to build your ancestor tree
to at least the 8 great, grandparent level and as many of your 16 great, great, grandparents that we can. The great, grandparent level is
nice -- but going down to present day from that level will only get you your 2nd Cousins -- some of those you may not know you had, but
oftentimes you already know a handful of your 2nd Cousins. But the typical individual has 20-30 2nd Cousins but multiple hundreds of 3rd
Cousins. That's what Mearba Kanfot Haaretz excels at finding for you.
To get there, we first need to get to your 16 great, great, grandparent level. In most cases we can identify all of those within the first 3
hours of research. You can pay for the research hour by hour -- which with current rates is 200 SH/hour -- or you can get a 90% guarantee by
paying a flat fee of 500 SH.
Once we get to the great, great, grandparent level, then the 3rd Cousin search begins in earnest. We do what other companies do not do by
using record analysis to trace FORWARD genealogy to find your current living relatives.
Usually we can find you your first 3rd Cousin within the first 5 hours of research. So if you figure that at an hourly rate is a cost of
approximately 1000 SH, you can of course continue to pay by the hour if you choose. But if you prefer, you can opt for the FIND MY 3rd COUSINS
FAST route, and pay a flat fee of 700 SH to find your first 3rd Cousin.
Mearba Kanfot Haaretz uses all open source technology -- does not use any spook methods or stalking sites to find your relatives. We are not
private investigators, but we happen to be very good at finding people.
How your first hour consultation works. We first ask, that you come to your initial session prepared. We ask that you fill out this simple
worksheet to help us get started -- and e-mail it to us at least 3 days before your scheduled consultation.
Your first hour consultation is free -- you'll be amazed that after just one hour, we can find information about your family that you never
knew you had. Why not sign up for your free hour now?
