What are search angels and time travel detectives?

[KGarrad]

Search Angels:
A non-profit organization here to assist you with your genealogy and DNA test results for those seeking help unravelling the past in search of their biological family roots

Best I can find for "Time Travel Detectives" is a children's book: Uncle Alf and the Time Travel Detectives.

Didn't you find baron vin Munchausen time travelling performer who comes to Leicester every year for comedy festival
Don't know where he goes rest of year .

Many rootschatters are time travel detectives and I will vouch for them and award certificates .

Turi King approved of my business card ♦️
Did I mention that as I specialise in finding DNA relationships I wanted to distinguish myself from traditional genealogists

What are search angels and time travel detectives?

The same as normal angels but looking for something?
The same as normal time travellers but trying to solve a crime?

Ruskie what a great succinct  definition

Fyi crime is not what I investigate most .

It's more missing people and proving fidelity or infidelity of ancestors via DNA

also investigating family myths .

Finding out use and provenance of  objects and cultural differences.

Exploring changes in language .spellings and regional differences

The only crime I've investigated so far was a 1944 murder in my alley way ...the crime had been solved ..last double hanging in Leicester
last execution by Pierrepoint(the nephew  )before retirement
But
I wanted to find what had become of witnesses .learn where Nora was buried..very sad her father died year later .+ If there were any people who remembered the case .

Local vicar consulted me about a board of names and if I could find the titanic connection.

I was trying to make a joke Brigid. Not a very good one I admit. 

Sorry, you’ve lost me with the other stuff but no matter, as it’s sproutmeister’s thread.

I didn't get joke ..I thought it was clever short answer .

Have altered punctuation but have a tendency to befuddle folk and say too much .

Comedy mentor says edit edit edit .

Thanks for answering ...would you consider yourself a genealogist a family historian & or a fellow time travel detective

Most of forums on here involve some kind of detective work and research

I also have grandads  box of photos to identify
Photo and fashion spacialists on here have fount of knowledge
