[Genealib] Professional Researchers List

[Trevia W Beverly]

Both the Genealogy Dept of the Texas State Library (Austin) and Clayton Library for Genealogical Research (Houston) have a list of those who do research for a fee (better  than saying 'professional' as, in my observation, not all are experienced nor certified nor a member of APG).  
      The listings are free; they both give a caveat that it is a list of those who request to be listed; no endorsement (not the exact wording).  I believe that if someone wants a copy of the list they are asked to send a business size SASE for it; or it is available on site.

Another place to find researchers in any locality, including Europe, is the Association for Professional Genealogists (APG).  If you have a list that your library publishes, you might think about listing them at the top and give the web address: http://apgen.org/directory/index.php

    Does anyone maintain an online listing of professional researchers in your locality?  If so, do you charge researchers to be so listed?

  If you search Google Local for Genealogists
  http://local.google.com/
  you obtain about 8,290 items.

  There is also Yahoo! Local

  Business and Professional Researchers, at:
  http://www.academic-genealogy.com/documentationpublications.htm#Professional
  has additional individuals and resources.
