We help individuals, families, and legal professionals trace Italian ancestry, verify heritage, and obtain the documentation they need. Our team specializes exclusively in Italian records: civil registers, parish archives, Comuni records, and regional repositories across all 20 Italian regions.
Here is a full overview of what we offer.
Italian Family History Research
Our core service. We trace your Italian family line using civil records, church registers, emigration lists, and regional archives across Italy. Most of these records are not online, we access them directly through on-site researchers in every region.
Whether you have a surname and a vague village name or nothing but a ship manifest, we build a documented, sourced family history from the ground up.
Ancestral Village Research
Finding the exact town where your Italian ancestors were born is one of the most rewarding and frustrating parts of Italian genealogy. Family stories fade. Ship manifests list vague provinces. Online databases hit walls fast.
We use civil records, church registers, and regional archives to pinpoint your ancestral village, even when DNA results and family memory give you very little to go on.

Italian DNA Research
Your DNA test came back showing Italian ancestry but no one in your family ever mentioned Italy. Or maybe you know one parent is Italian but can’t identify which line. We combine genetic genealogy with Italian civil and church records to identify the unknown biological ancestor and document the connection.

Sicilian & Regional Italian Research
Sicily, Calabria, Naples, Piedmont: each Italian region has its own records, dialects, archive structures, and research challenges. Southern Italian and Sicilian records in particular require specialists who know the local repositories and naming customs.
We have on-site researchers across all 20 Italian regions, including dedicated specialists for the most record-intensive southern provinces.
