Preserving What Matters Most.
Every photograph, document, and family story holds something worth remembering.
At Archive Lane, we offer personalized services to help you preserve meaningful memories, organize important records, and discover the stories that connect generations.
OUR SERVICES
Preserve the photographs and home videos that tell your family’s story by converting them into convenient digital files that are easier to view, organize, share, and protect. Photo digitization is available for standard loose photographs and personal collections. Home-video digitization is currently available for VHS tapes. Each item is handled carefully throughout the digitization process, and completed files are provided through standard digital delivery.
Starting Pricing
• Photo scanning: $0.35 per photograph
• Minimum photo order: $25, covering up to 50 photographs
• VHS digitization: Starting at $12 per tape
Final pricing may vary depending on the quantity, condition, size, format, organization requested, and whether an item requires special handling. Albums, fragile or damaged photographs, oversized materials, damaged tapes, specialty formats, detailed file naming, and advanced organization may require an additional quote.

Discover the people, places, and records behind your family’s story through personalized genealogical research and thoughtfully prepared family-history materials. Every project begins with a specific research goal. Whether you are trying to identify an ancestor, confirm a family relationship, explore one ancestral line, organize existing research, or preserve your discoveries in a keepsake book, the project will be structured around what you most want to learn.
Available Services
• Family-tree and ancestral-line research
• Census, vital, immigration, church, military, cemetery, and historical-record research
• Record transcription and analysis
• Review of conflicting names, dates, locations, and relationships
• Source organization and documentation
• Research summaries and narrative family histories
• Family-tree charts, timelines, and individual ancestor profiles
• Custom digital family-history books, with printed copies available as an additional option
Starting Pricing
Focused genealogy projects generally begin at $350. Extended ancestral-line research, international research, large family trees, record retrieval fees, translations, and custom family-history books are quoted according to the project’s scope and complexity. Because historical records vary by location, time period, accessibility, and survival, specific discoveries cannot be guaranteed. All findings will be presented honestly, with sources identified and unanswered questions clearly explained.
