Welcome to Family Stories

A research service catering to your
southeastern Pennsylvania genealogy needs
(Lancaster, York, Lebanon, and Dauphin Counties)

Many of our 18th century immigrant ancestors first set foot in America at the port of Philadelphia. Other immigrant families spent time in Pennsylvania on their way to or from another state or Canada. If you need professional research assistance to learn more about your family and the time they spent in south central Pennsylvania (Lancaster, York, Lebanon or Dauphin Counties), you might consider working with Sandy at Family Stories.

Sandy Darrah is a genealogy researcher with over 5 years professional research experience. Sandy teaches genealogy at the local community college and has completed research for satisfied clients. Research projects have been as diverse as compiling a house history to tracing an entire family line and writing a 100 page book ready for the copy house. Other projects include scanning and organizing a family’s photographs, and creating personalized calendars from family photographs and important dates.

Family Stories can provide the assistance
you need to further your research.
