I was born in Scotland as a first generation Scot. Both of my parents were born in Italy, and emigrated to Scotland as children. I spent many summers visiting my Grandfather in Italy, and my wife and I now live in my paternal home comune.
Together with my wife, I have been researching our family for a number of years, and now that we are local to many of the records, we have been working on filling in all of the gaps. We are currently back to my 7th Great Grandfather, born about 1630. Except for occasion information from relatives on ancestors born after about 1900, all of our research has original source information from the local churches.
We are hoping to get back through all of the records available here (about 1560), and then figure out where to go from there!

PS If you add some Tags, they are clickable links to a page of other people who have that tag and links to resources. To get the best results, add separate tags for each surname and spelling variation of interest. You can have up to 20 in total.
Check out the How-to pages for some quick tips on working with both the Wiki pages and our other members. There is some great information in those pages.
