Marcello was thorough with family details in the short timeframe given. It was a blessing to meet in person and to tread the streets of my ancestors.

Wonderful experience with Marcello! He researched my ancestors and gave us amazing documents about our family. He also met us in Palermo and showed us around to all of the spots that my family lived and also died and it was a life changing exeperience! Will not hesitate to refer him to friends and family wanting to know more about their ancestors!

I reached out to a couple genealogists in Southern Italy in December 2023 about tracing our Italian roots. My father, who was quite proud of his Italian heritage, had passed away, and it had always been his dream to take his kids and grandkids to Sicily to see part of our homeland. Since he could no longer take us, we decided to plan for over a year to take the trip on his honor
One genealogist told me that it would be impossible to get me any documents on my family since they are from Palermo and Palermo keeps bad records. But that was not the case with Marcello. He explained everything so well throughout the experience. For over a year now, he’s been doing research on my family in Palermo (for my grandfather’s maternal line) as well as in Savoia di Lucania and Caggiano (for my grandfather’s paternal line)
He has provided our family with so much details, including streets they lived on, churches they were married and baptized in, what jobs they had. I have been so happy with his knowledge and professionalism
Then, he took my family, all 17 of us, around Palermo when we made the visit in my dad’s honor in March 2025. On what would have been my dad’s 69th birthday, he showed us where our ancestors lived and told us about what life would have been like for them.
My entire family is so grateful to Marcello, and my dad would be so proud that we are recovering our roots. In fact, I’m having Marcello continue to research my grandfather’s paternal line, and once that is finished, I am also going to hire Marcello to research my grandmother’s heritage, as her family are from Avellino
Maybe one day I will return to explore more of my homeland. Thank you so much to Marcello for all your hard work and for being so welcoming to my family and answering all our questions on our walk through Palermo

Marcello went above and beyond with my family history and taking care of my husbandand myself. I had reached out and informed him I was going to be in Bagheria, Italy in a week. I arrived to Bagheria and he met my husband and myself at the train station. He walked us through town, showing where my family resided and the history of Bagheria; and went to lunch with us. I was only expecting to get documents and explore on our own and definately was not what happened. Marcello went above and beyond than what I ever expected. I did not know how much I needed this trip. Marcello made my experience about getting to learn my ancestors incredible. It was emotional and I felt so connected that I did not realize would be possible. Hands down a wonderful man and very articulate in his research.
If you are wanting to learn about your past and want an experience, Marcello is your guy!! He is very thorough and loves what he does, as it shows. I would highly recommend visiting if you can and he will treat you and your history with great care.
The one thing I wished I had done was get a picture with him. This definitely will not be my last visit, so next time I will. After this trip, I have gained more than just a person who is helping me uncover my history but gained a friend to go and visit.

Several years ago, I contacted Marcello D'Aleo for help with my father's genealogy. Not only was he able to trace the family back five generations, but also to provide me with dates and locations of births, deaths, and marriages. I met Marcello in Sicily where he presented me with a booklet filled with background information about my family, including job descriptions. I was overwhelmed with delight and gratitude. He then proceeded to take me to many of the locations where my ancestors lived and worked. Amazing! Marcello is a serious genaelogist who is generous with his knowledge and his time. I look forward to working with him in the future.

Marcello provided great assistance to me to support my research for a genealogically-inspired novel. I discovered the truth about a mysterious great-great grandmother. I also learned that one of my great aunts remained in Sicily. Much gratitude to Marcello!

Marcello D’Aleo started working with us in 2023 and from that time through October 2024 he researched and provided us with extensive documentation to include birth, marriage, and death records on several generations of my family in Sicily. I am a 2nd generation, my grandparents both immigrating to the U.S. in the early 1900’s from Santa Flavia, Sicily. His research and subsequent providing of records was invaluable to the construction of my family tree and the overall discovery of my family roots. I learned many, many things I had never known about my family. On a trip to Santa Flavia in September 2024 Marcello met with us and spent an afternoon on his own time giving us a tour and providing even more family history and anecdotes. I highly recommend Marcello D’Aleo as a professional, personable, sincere, and dedicated subject matter expert in genealogical research.

Marcello assisted me with my family search and I was very satisfied. We have learned so much new information thanks to Marcello and his help. I'd highly recommend him if you need/want to find out more information on your ancestors.
