Family genealogy
Sanada Genealogy supports individuals who wish to better understand their family history, recover missing information, or clarify a situation related to an estate.
Our research is based on reliable sources, a local presence in North Africa, and precise knowledge of administrative and archival practices.
We move forward with you, step by step, to provide clear and accessible answers.
Our role in your family research
Family genealogy in North Africa requires an attentive, patient, and methodical approach. Archives may be incomplete, some transmissions occur orally, and families are sometimes spread across several countries.
Our role is to gather all available elements, verify family relationships, and help you understand your place within a lineage or within a succession.
We work with official documents, administrative archives, testimonies, and field research. Each situation is examined with rigor, but always with the aim of guiding you in a clear and accessible way. You are informed of what can be confirmed, what requires further verification, and any limits related to the state of the sources.
Our family genealogy services
-
Official document retrieval
We search for civil status records, administrative documents, historical archives, or land titles when they still exist. Results cannot be guaranteed, as some local archives are incomplete or difficult to access, but we always inform you of what is possible and what is not. -
Search for ancestors and distant relatives
We rebuild family branches, identify ancestors, and find extended family members when documentation makes it possible. This process can clarify a family narrative, support the confirmation of a lineage, or provide answers to unresolved questions. -
Creation of family trees
We create family trees based on verified and contextualized documents. They provide a clear visual representation of family connections and help you understand how a lineage has evolved over several generations. -
Verification of lineage
We examine the available documents and local sources to establish a reliable, well‑documented lineage whenever you wish to confirm a family connection or verify information passed down orally. -
Search for land titles and bank accounts
We can search for the existence of land titles or bank accounts linked to an estate. As with other steps, results depend on the condition of local archives and administrative practices, but we always explain what can be undertaken and what requires further confirmation. -
Support in understanding an estate
We can be contacted directly by individuals who need to understand their situation within a local estate or clarify a family file. We support you at every stage, helping you clarify your position and move forward with confidence in your administrative steps. -
Vacant real estate properties
We can also be contacted directly regarding an old family property or one that has been left unmanaged. We verify the available information, identify potential heirs, and explain the possible steps depending on the situation.

We can discuss your situation, understand what you wish to clarify, and outline the first possible steps.
Frequently asked questions
Are archives always accessible?
No. Archives are not always accessible. Some local collections may be incomplete, damaged, or subject to restricted consultation. We always explain what is possible and what is not, before beginning any search, so you have a clear view of the feasibility and limits of the work.
Which documents should I provide?
All the documents you have can be valuable. We review each element to understand your situation and determine what can support the research. We are available to discuss your case and guide you according to your needs.
How long does the research take?
It depends on how old the events are and on the condition of the archives. We provide an estimated timeframe from the outset and keep you informed as the work progresses, so you always know where things stand.
Are results guaranteed?
No, because some sources may be missing. However, we always provide a clear explanation of what has been found, what can be confirmed, and what remains uncertain, so you have a precise and transparent view of the outcome.
