We’re Traveling in Italy And Sharing Family Legacy


Hello, we are traveling in Italy because a distant cousin found me on the internet and invited us to come to Italy to meet other members of my distant family.

The Balzani family has a long and regal history in Italy. We visited Villa Balzani on Via Balzani in Zola Predosa near Bologna,  & the cemetery in Bologna where many relatives are buried.

We will bring back all this heritage to our children and grandchildren so it can be passed on.

Thanks for your time in this matter

Henry & Kathy Balzani
