Project Description
October 2018
It is clear to us that Mirella puts her heart and soul into her work. Our day visiting my dad’s ancestral towns was wonderful! It even exceeded our expectations!
We met relatives from both sides of the family. Mirella picked us up at our hotel and drove us to both towns. We started in Morcone, where we met Paolo. We visited the church where family members attended, strolled through the beautiful hilltop town and then were treated to a delicious lunch!
From there we drove to Apollosa, where we met Valeria, another family member. We visited the family church here also. Then, Valeria invited us into her home, where we talked and had an espresso!
In addition to the tour, Mirella traced our tree back to the 1600’s, and provided us with copies of birth and marriage records on both sides of the family.
I would highly recommend Mirella and Southern Italy Travel to anyone wanting to trace their Italian roots.
