Immigration and heritage

Roots tourism

Three generations on the same trip: the elders tell what they heard at home.

Travelers researching family history visit the town where their ancestors arrived, the church where grandparents were baptized and the archives that hold the records. A conversation at the parish or a cultural association often opens paths that are not in any database.
