Michelle Jackson

I am a Genealogist currently living in London, United Kingdom. My interests range from Genealogy to History. I am also interested in United Kingdom, writing, and entrepreneurship.

I am the founder and principal genealogist at Family History Gifts. Our aim is to provide the highest quality research, family history writing, and for the end product to be a gift of joy. Since 1998 we have offered innovative ancestry products including gift experiences.

I began researching my family tree in 1985 and became professional in 1998. Since then, I have successfully researched 100s of trees with English, Scottish, Welsh, and Irish origins.

I specialise in theatre ancestors and established the theatre resource website about Handel's favourite trumpter, Abraham Adcock (www.abrahamadcock.com).

After many years of studying the discipline of genealogy, I am returning to academia to further the progress of my education with the University of Strathclyde. In the meantime, Family History Gifts continues to grow stronger.
