You have been contacted by Sanada
If we contacted you, it is never by chance.
Sanada Généalogie has been conducting estate research in Africa for more than 15 years. Our role is to identify and locate potential heirs and to provide all the necessary evidence to establish their legitimate rights.
Why do we contact you?
We contact you to:
- confirm a genealogical hypothesis established during our research,
- inform you that you may have rights in an estate and explain the steps required to assert them.
Our role is to clarify the situation, secure the information, and support you, when necessary, through the administrative steps related to the estate.
In certain estates, some heirs may be unknown, absent, or difficult to locate. When our research indicates that someone may belong to the family concerned, we contact them to verify or complete the information collected.
This may involve :
- the confirmation of a family connection,
- the verification of a civil‑status record,
- the clarification of a filiation,
- the possibility that you may be an heir or beneficiary.
No commitment is required from you at this stage. This is an exploratory contact intended to understand your situation and explain the context.
Who is Sanada Genealogie?
Sanada Genealogy is a company specializing in heir research and the documentation of estates involving Morocco, Algeria, and Tunisia. We operate in environments where archives may be incomplete, where certain transmissions occur orally, and where administrative procedures require a deep understanding of local practices.
Our role is to understand your place in the family history related to the estate and to verify with you whether a connection truly exists. We proceed step by step, taking the time to explain each point and answer your questions.
If your rights are confirmed, we support you so that you can move forward with peace of mind, knowing exactly where you stand and what it means for you.

Frequently asked questions
Why was I contacted?
You were contacted because our research indicates that you may be connected to an estate. This does not mean that you are an heir: it simply means that your situation needs to be verified in order to confirm, or rule out, a family link.
Am I required to respond?
No. You are free to respond or not. If you choose to speak with us, it simply allows us to verify a piece of family information and to explain the situation to you with full transparency.
How can I know your approach is legitimate?
Sanada Genealogy is a company specializing in estate research in North Africa for more than 15 years. We work from official documents, local archives, and verified sources. During our exchanges, you may request the identity of your contact person and the precise framework of the ongoing research.
Does this commit me to anything?
No. The initial conversation does not commit you to anything. It is solely meant to understand your possible place in the family history connected to the estate and to verify the information we currently have.
Will I have to pay anything?
No. The verification process does not require any payment from you. If your situation later requires representation or a specific form of support, everything is explained clearly before you make any decision.
What happens to the information I share with you?
The information you share is used solely to verify a possible family connection or to establish your potential link to the estate. It is handled confidentially and never used outside the scope of the ongoing research.
Does this mean I have an inheritance to receive?
Not necessarily. Being contacted means you might be concerned, but this must be confirmed through documents and the necessary verifications. If your rights are established, we then explain the next steps.
What happens if I am indeed an heir?
If your rights are confirmed, we help you understand the situation, gather the necessary documents, and move forward calmly through each required step. You are guided throughout the process, without any rush.
