Family History Research
We start with what you know and build outward — census records, church books, ship manifests — until we can confidently map your line back to your Italian-born ancestor.
Services
Everything you need,
nothing you don't.
Choose one service, several, or full end-to-end support. Each engagement is scoped to what your file actually needs.
Document Retrieval Support
Canadian birth, marriage, and death certificates from every province, plus long-form records where required. We handle the ordering, tracking, and follow-up.
Italian Record Searches
Correspondence with comuni, state archives, and parishes across Italy to source your ancestor's birth, marriage, and death records in the correct estratto formats.
Naturalization Record Searches
We verify with Library and Archives Canada and USCIS whether your ancestor naturalized — and when — because timing is everything for a Jure Sanguinis claim.
Apostille Assistance
Guidance through Canada's Hague Apostille process (Global Affairs and provincial authorities) so every document your consulate needs is properly authenticated.
Translation Coordination
Certified translations into Italian, coordinated with translators recognized by Italian consulates. We handle the hand-off so nothing gets lost.
Application Package Preparation
Your consulate-ready binder: forms filled, documents ordered, checklist complete, and quality-checked so you walk into your appointment with confidence.
Consultation Services
One-to-one strategy sessions — new applicants, stuck cases, or a second set of eyes on a file you've been carrying for years.
