use customs to find your town of origin - genealogy
(return to geneaology)

Find out all you can about the towns and villages your Italian ancestors came from. You will find that their customs and traditions became a part of them and are now a part of you. Information is also available on the Internet and your public library. All you have to do is find it!

If you don't know the town but you're familiar with specific traditons, that too may help you in tracking down the town of origin. ©Deborah K. Millemaci - 2002
