About Me

“We came all this way to explore the moon, and the most important thing is that we discovered Earth,” said astronaut William Anders. The same is true for genealogy—while searching for our ancestors, we often end up discovering ourselves.

I am Tadej Trnovšek, a professional genealogist, historian, and sociologist of culture. My mission is to help you uncover your family roots and understand the lives of your ancestors within the context of their time. With a passion for storytelling and design, I craft engaging family chronicles that blend historical facts, cultural heritage, and personal stories into a narrative that’s as informative as it is unforgettable.

I can’t recommend Tadej highly enough. Not only did he help me fill in branches of my family tree that had been a mystery for years, but he also translated family letters, which brought rich details of our family story to life.  Tadej helped us contact and visit our family in Slovenia, which never would have been possible without his assistance. My family and I am eternally grateful to Tadej for his help, which reunited our family after 100 years of separation.

Walking the lands of our ancestors, visiting homesteads and meeting relatives has forever changed me. There is a stirring deep in my bones – a stirring of remembrance, a stirring of pain, a stirring of joy, a stirring of transformation. As Tadej says on his website, while searching for our ancestors, we often end up discovering ourselves. I left our ancestral tour with a great and cherished gift that keeps unfurling, giving, and changing me. Tadej truly made magic happen by guiding us on this journey. His work is deeply sacred and he brings his whole heart to uncovering details and reconnecting people with their roots. A delight to work with from start to end, I highly recommend him to anyone who feels a call to learn more about their Slovenian roots.

Thanks to Tadej, my fourth trip to Slovenia became unforgettable. With his help, I finally found my ancestral homes, walked in my ancestors’ footsteps, and even met new cousins. His knowledge, creativity, and warmth brought history alive and gave me a deeper understanding of my immigrant family’s lives. Tadej is truly a gem, and I wholeheartedly recommend his genealogy services.

Tadej’s expertise in Slovenian genealogy helped me uncover generations of family history that I thought were lost forever. He also organized an unforgettable ancestral tour in Slovenia, where I was able to meet distant relatives and explore my family’s homeland. This emotional journey wouldn’t have been possible without Tadej’s dedication and knowledge. I highly recommend his services to anyone seeking to reconnect with their roots.
