We’re always looking for things. Day in day out. For our keys, our mobile phone or answers to the mysteries of the past. But searching doesn’t automatically mean finding.
Searching means asking the right questions. You need to develop strategies and apply knowledge and intuition if you want to track down people and events from the past.
And when you do find something, it often seems like you’re back at square one. History doesn’t move in a straight line. It’s not black and white; it’s often stubborn, only giving up its secrets to those with experience and creativity. wesearch can help you in your search. We tell (hi)stories.
