Welcome to Kefalonian Roots

 

The general purpose of Kefalonian Roots is to acquaint the descendents of Kefalonians with resources and information useful for researching their family history.

The specific purpose of the site is to make information and genealogical documents available to all descendents of Kefalonians, especially those who cannot visit the island and remain for the extended period of time required for researching, obtaining documents, and locating their ancestral village.

To meet this purpose, Kefalonian Roots provides the following services:  a Personal Research Assistant on the island; a medium for communication among users researching a specific surname; useful resource information; and historical, cultural and religious information concerning Kefalonia.

It is hoped that family researchers will use this site to its full potential by adding information about their immigrant ancestors; surnamesfamily tree; and by placing topics of interest on the bulletin board.

It is believed that through the use of this site, descendents of Kefalonians will learn more about their ancestors and family history; and will develop a warm respect for their ancestors’ homeland and way of life.
