How the lines join

Part V · 🇮🇹 🇭🇷

A surname is one thread and the family is the weave. This part holds who the name married and which empire still holds the records of the families it married into, the pages of those families, the households rebuilt from the registers, the blood relatives drawn out from any person, and what DNA says when it is read against four hundred years of parish registers.
