''One thing we have discovered is that we are a nation of wanderers.
Our ancestors have wandered the globe, and often left us with
only one clue to trace their heritage, their surname.'' - Unknown

The primary goals of this page are:

1. To list our "cousins" researching this surname.
2. To link to pages of interest to people researching this surname.
3. To collect information pertaining to this surname, and the bearers of this surname that might in some way facilitate research of this surname.
4. To present this information on the web so that it can be freely accessed by any of our cousins at any time, from any place.

''In order for all our cousins to be gathered together,
from wherever they may have wandered,
you need a nest to gather them in.'' - Unknown

I need your help to do this. Please contribute anything you can to this project.

The Meaning of the La Tourette Surname:
La Tourette means "Little Tower."

The Origin of the La Tourette Surname:
The La Tourette family originated in Genoa, Italy, believe it or not.
The surname was originally della Torretta.
Then, when they migrated to France, it became de la Tourette.
And now it's La Tourette, LaTourette, Latourette, or one of several other variations.

Well, good luck in your research!

IMPORTANT!

Please, PLEASE register your e-mail address with one of the following directories or change of address services and then update it every time you get a new e-mail address so others can stay in touch with you.

NOTICE:

Those of you who are familiar with this site, know that the list of
researchers has always been on this page. Well I have put it on its own
page and have now made it so you have to click on a button to see the list.

Why?

Well for one thing it has made this page much shorter - it was pretty long.

But I've especially done it so that your email addresses will be further
protected from spammers than they already are with Javascript,
as I explain on Page 1.

The spammers can't harvest email addresses
from a web page accessed from a button.

I hope that will ease your concern about having your email address
posted on this site. If I can make you happy by freeing you of the
burden of dealing with spam or at least by lessening the amount of
spam you would otherwise receive, then I'll be happy!

who are researching the La Tourette family.
