Our Genealogy Helper

Introduction ...

So far, we found very little information about Lavinia. The little that we've found leads us believe that the community is historic.<1>

We've added Lavinia to our Gazetteer with the hope that we can develop more information. If you can help us with Lavinia, please Contact Us.

We have a couple of goals for our Gazetteer:

• That it be a tool which helps us with planning our trips.
• We're trying to shape our Gazetteer as a tool to help us understand the community in which our ancestors lived, the community that was part of their daily lives.
• On our trips, we try to visit those places where our ancestors left their footprints.

By learning about Lavinia (and the surrounding area) during the time that our ancestors lived, we hope to have a better understanding of both their community and its relationship to their lifes. We hope that this tool helps to give us an insight into their world.

As we add data and organize our Gazetteer to help with our family research, we will be adding to this our Genealogical Helper for Lavinia. While we don't have information that is specific to any given person or family, we intend to expand our understanding about where and how people lived.
