"Genealogy
Links"
Genealogy is not a hobby but rather a
passion. Discovering our past, who we are, and where we came from, is a lifelong effort
all of us wish we would have started earlier. Our ancesters, each with their own story,
become part of our heritage that can now be passed down to yet another generation.
Grazia to the many people who on their web sites make their hard work readily available
for family research and a special thanks to all the members of PIE and
COI for their inspiration & selfless devotion to Italian Genealogy.
Ciao, Jim
