My grandaunt, Ann Genetti McNelis (1903-2005), the youngest in a family of 9, my grandfather's youngest sister and the oldest relative in my tree. She lived to be 102! At the age of 3 she immigrated with her mother and siblings from Tyrol, Austria to #Hazleton, PA. #genealogy #familyhistory

This is Casa Genetti today, #Castelfondo, Italy. The fresco on the front of the house dates to the mid-1500's and the marble carved Coat-of-Arms (Stemma) above the door is probably from the 1700's. The home was built abt early 1500's, but could be older. #familyhome #genealogy #familyhistory

This is my great-grandfather, Damiano Genetti (1857-1944), standing in the doorway of our family homestead in #Castelfondo, #Trentino, Italy. Casa Genetti dates to about the early 1500's and is still occupied, although no one knows the exact time it was built. #familyhome #genealogy #familyhistory
