This is a PowerPoint where I will show you some information about my forefathers, for instance where they come, and why they come here. First you´ll see information about may father and Finally about my mother..

My father's family came from two different places, his mother came

From my father´s mother, Alice, her parents came from Italy to here because they had had a big discussion with her great-uncles, it had been for some lands, so my great grandparents decided come to Argentina to start a new life on year 1820.

And from my father´s father, Miguel Angel, his parents had decided come here because they had had many problems with the war in Spain , so for save their lives, they had decided to start a new life in our country.

And my mother's family came from Argentina, her mother came from Corrientes – Corrientes and her father Concepcion del Uruguay - Entre

Rios.
