The Synpro Media Heritage Network is a collection of free genealogy and cultural heritage reference guides, built for the diaspora communities served by the Love Ireland, Love Scotland, Love Italy, Love France, and Love South Africa newsletters. Combined, these newsletters reach over 170,000 readers across the US, UK, Australia, and Canada.
Each surname and clan page draws on historical records, census data, emigration archives, and linguistic sources to explain where a name came from, what it meant, and how it travelled. The guides are free to use and updated regularly.
