Hawaiian-Roots.com is recognized by the State of Hawaii as a non-profit organization.
We understand the importance of family history, and want to help as many people as possible to learn more about their Hawaii families, whether they were Japanese immigrants, British contractors or Hawaiian ancestors–we have helped them all. Therefore, Hawaiian Roots will begin helping with family research projects up to two hours long, for a minimum donation of $25 (includes domestic mailing/copying fees). The money will be put back toward the organization to continue helping others.
Services may include finding supporting documents through newspaper archives, immigrant ship manifests, certificates of Hawaiian birth and vital records through the Hawaii State Archives, Hawaii State Library, BYU Family History Centers and others. On completion, you will receive all research notes and copies of documents found.
Projects will be put on a wait-list basis, so contact Christine Hitt at christine4056@gmail.com for further information. At this time, Hawaiian Roots’ status is as a nonprofit organization with the State of Hawaii. We are in the process of filing for a 501(c)3 with the IRS, so donations are not tax-deductible at this time. Updates to follow.
