This is a great story about how Traci found Elena, who just as a new friend agreed to help Traci find the lady in black.  As a result, Elena started E. G. Ancestry Research.  Elena adds a personal touch and researches civil and church records in the Northern part of Italy.  However, she will make special arrangements with you for trips to the south.

To research your “Lady In Black”  or other ancestors you can contact Elena at E. G. Ancestry Research

When you contact Elena please mention IG2020.
