Tracing Ancestry with Achievements
years of combined experience in Genealogy and Family History Research
 Founded in 1961 in support of the Institute of Heraldic and Genealogical Studies, we are pleased to announce that we have now officially merged with our sister organisation. It is through the Institute that all our researchers are fully trained and qualified. Achievements is the longest established centre for Family History research, and has been tracing Family Trees for over forty-nine years.
Our extensive library are housed in these ancient premises in Canterbury's Northgate Street, with Family Tree records ranging from the most up-to-date finding aids, to original collections of Tudor and Medieval manuscripts. These provide Achievement's researchers with a unique advantage. Tracing ancestry has never been more fascinating than it is today, due to the discovery of so many new and exciting records. In many ways we were instrumental in the founding of the Family Tree movement. Before this time, genealogy as it was usually known, could be as dry as dust and involved tracing only the upper classes, and links to titles and Coats of Arms. At Achievements, we trace all levels of family tree, from farm labourers to surgeons, and Indian Army Colonels to criminals. Ancestry tracing has never been so dynamic and so colourful.
