Found a name in the Search for your family section? LivornoGen checks that person and their relatives in its own genealogical databases and sends you all the information available.
1841 Tuscan census
We can trace a family in the Grand Duchy census, producing a one-page sheet with members, ages, occupations, census remarks and a short commentary.
How we present the results
Each research project can come with a set of charts and maps in PDF. The examples come from a real, anonymised project: click the images to enlarge them.
Family trees
The example shows an ancestor fan chart over six or seven generations, with the four grandparents’ lines in four shades of green. It is just one of the possible formats:
- classic ancestor tree, vertical or horizontal
- descendant tree of a founding ancestor
- hourglass tree: ancestors and descendants of the same person
- tree of a single branch or surname across the centuries
We choose the format together; every tree is delivered ready to print.
Ancestor table
The numbered list of every ancestor found, generation by generation, with dates, places, occupations and links to the records online.
Family migration map
Your family’s journeys across the centuries, line by line, on a map.
Family timeline
Your ancestors’ lives set against the historical events of the places where they lived: wars, epidemics, changes of government.
Family geography
Where your family lived across three periods, and how the surname was spread across Tuscany in 1841.
