…. but FWL is more than history. It’s more than family history. It’s more than social history. It’s about people.
Every week, maybe even every day, we hear the world ‘scam’. We write to people to tell them that a relative has passed away. Sometimes people have been notified. Sometimes they haven’t. Sometimes the connection is so close that the deceased is one of their parents and they frequently are not aware of their departure. That requires compassion…. and, we are told, our competitors lack this skill.
This weekend has been one of the busiest weekends of the year. We have family history binders ‘coming out of our ears’, beneficiaries wanting updates on cases, people needing to be traced and new commissions coming in left, right and centre. Looking back at where we were twelve months ago, FWL is almost unrecognisable. Many of the calls we have received over the last week have begun with dubiousness and ended with a deep desire to learn more about their previously unknown family history and garner a connection with their extended family members. We have always had a positive reputation in the field. Now, that reputation is concreted and recognised across the world. We are a force to be reckoned with.
During the week, we have had many plates spinning from a case being heard in the High Court to clearance of a flat in Surrey and a narrow-boat in Berkshire. We have often wondered, over the last few years, if other companies work in the same way that we do and we now know that they don’t. Other companies are not as honest as us. Would you believe that some other companies don’t disclose the estate they are writing/speaking about??!
Other companies do not provide the service we do. They do not do what they say they will do. 2017 is going to be even more amazing than 2016, for you all and for us…. have no doubt!
You and me got a whole lot of history
We could be the greatest team that the world has ever seen
You and me got a whole lot of history
So don’t let it go, we can make some more, we can live forever
