Project Description
June, 2016
We (my brother, my wife and I) recently took a 4 day custom genealogy tour with Southern Italy Travel during which we visited several communes and frazione where my ancestors were born, lived and died.
I could not be happier with the care, performance and professionalism of Mirella and her associate Alessandro.
Mirella did extensive research before we arrived and provided us many baptism, marriage and death record images.
In several communes, Mirella arranged for local guides to describe the history and of the area. We hunted down unused churches (damaged by earthquake) in remote rural area of Umbria in which our ancestors were baptized and met with the mayor of the commune where our grandparents and great grandparents lived.
We visited the archives in Norcia where the records of our ancestors are kept.
We found the grave of our great grandfather which Mirella is now assisting us to restore. It was a great experience. With no hesitation, I give Southern Italy Travel 5 stars.
