Beverly Nield had a passion for history and genealogy from an early age, frequently asking grandparents about family history and, "What was life like when you were a child?"

Beverly spent most of her life in England, where she studied history and education at the University of Cambridge. Now residing in the Florida Panhandle, research has taken her to many US states, especially in the south. Museums have been visited for extra information, as well as numerous cemeteries to obtain photographs of gravestones. Great Britain and the USA are specialist areas but work for clients has been undertaken for Austria, Lithuania, Scandinavia, Canada, Mexico and beyond.
