"Your package arrived today. Thanks! Haven't had a chance to go thru your info in detail yet, but it looks interesting. Didn't know there was a forger in the family line." - Mike G.
"Thank you so very much for the information you sent me regarding my Dearest Dad! I appreciate your hard work so very very much!" - Besty K.
"Penny is a great researcher and has impeccable integrity. She has helped me on various research problems and in each instance found solutions to my problem. She has also been able to find documents I had hard time finding. I would recommend anyone to use her services and believe she will satisfy your research needs." - John H.
"I never knew I had so many relatives! I come from a very small family. One set of grandparents came to the United States from Austria in the early 1900s. My grandfather on the other side of the family disappeared when my father was a baby. Unfortunately, I did not ask my parents and grandparents questions about their background when I was young - and now that I am older they are not around to answer my questions. I had hit a brick wall on research when Ms. Alvarez-Keller started to work on my family tree. She discovered more than I thought possible about the past and the present. I have many first cousins and cousins once and twice removed. Plus Penny arranged for me to speak to some of them. It was incredible, not just for me but for them! We all have relatives we never knew existed. It is so much fun to talk to family about family and hear the reminiscences about our shared roots. Quite an experience!" - Donna E.
"I've tried for many years to find my mom. One day I visited with Penny. I told her about my mother that I haven't seen in 40 years and wanted to find her. So Penny was determined that she could help me find my mother. I've got to say this ..... she did it after 40 years. I spoke to my Mom on the phone. It was the best thing that has ever happened. My Mom and I haven't gotten to see each other but we talk alot on the phone. I'm so excited after all these years.....it's so AMAZING! I have to say Penny helped me alot! I appreciate it. Thanks again Penny!" - April T.
"A big thank you to Penny Alvarez. After searching for my paternal Grandfather, Martin Slak, for 6 years, she found him. She is the best "hunter"! Everyone has tried to help but she is the one that found him. Thank you Penny!" - Nancy S. A.
Wow you sure got these records so fast, you must have a lot of experience, I thank you. Penny, wow, how do you do this? Wow, you are impressive! - Linda L.
"Yes, yes, yes - this is my great great grandfather. I have been searching for him for 15 years at least and others in the family longer. I can't believe he went by Sykes! I think the doctor in their town was a Sykes and we thought the son was named after the doctor. Amazing. Also the story was that he was shot while getting off of a train or something to do with a train and in these files they say he was killed by a train of cars. It was in Alabama in 1864, which fits with the age of the youngest. I knew that 1862 for his death couldn't be right but had no proof of when he had died. Thanks so much! You definitely have a knack for it. I read your email in the middle of the night and had to get up to read it all. It's just amazing! We have an application for an insurance policy where my great grandfather states that he died on the battlefield but if I understand this right, he was hit by a train of cars. We thought maybe he was getting off a train and was shot by someone. Wonderful work Penny! If anyone asks me for someone to help with their tree I will definitely recommend you to them. Your find with my gg grandfather was incredible and you are extremely good at it!" - Sherry W.
Penny you have been a great help in digging up my ancestors. Can't believe how many you have found, some that I had no idea I was related to. Thank you and keep up the good work. - Hilde Z. B.
WOW!!! What a lot to take in! It all makes sense now, doesn’t it. You sure found out alot in 10 hours! And to think I have spent hundreds of hours finding absolutely nothing! I will be in touch with you later this afternoon to see where we go from here. I know I will have lots of things to take in. Thank you so much! ( I am excited for it all and thank you so much.) Will touch base later today!! ~ Claudia F.
