Here’s my shot of Edward Norton from the US Premiere of “Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery”. Edward’s Glass Onion character Tech billionaire Miles Bron has been compared to billionaire Elon Musk in the press recently but more interesting is his claim to direct lineage to Pocahontas. ZUMA Press and Alamy both posted my shot of Edward Norton with the title commentary, “American actor EDWARD NORTON has discovered that the real-life Pocahontas, the romanticized and mythologized 17th century daughter of a Native American chief, is his 12th great-grandmother. The Oscar-nominated star learned of his family connection to the woman who married Virginia settler John Rolfe on Tuesday's episode of the PBS genealogical history show 'Finding Your Roots.' Historian and host Henry Louis Gates Jr. confirmed the longstanding family rumor to be fact, telling Norton: 'You have a direct paper trail, no doubt about it, connection to your 12th great-grandmother”.

Today we have clients visiting the Late Baroque Sicilian Town of Palazzolo Acreide for a heritage experience. They'll start their day here, at the Municipal Hall's office of vital records with their local, expert English-speaking guide. Lena and her children John and Carole, will visit la Chiesa di San Sebastiano where Lena's parents married before emigrating to the United States in 1920. They'll visit the cemetery to locate the graves of Lena's grandparents. And, if all goes as we planned, they'll meet Lena's living cousins who live in Palazzolo Acreide. Yesterday, they spent the afternoon at a farm on the outskirts of town having a hands-on cooking experience with a local family featuring typical recipes. Today, more historic and cultural experiences are in store. I can't wait to hear all about it later! #palazzoloacreide #heritage #heritagetravel #heritageresearch #findingyourroots #experiencesicily #sicily #sicilia #siciliabedda #italy #italia #sicilyvacation #sicilians_world #ig_sicily #igerssicilia #instasicilia #gf_italy #siculamenteDoc #sicily_tricolors #ig_visitsicily #Sicilia_PhotoGroup #smallgrouptours #traveltogether #authenticsicily #sicilytour #whatsicilyis (at Palazzolo Acreide) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8qDZQyFqRn/?igshid=h9cxjw5wj3w3
