The quality of our information and the satisfaction of our subscribers and visitors are our priorities.


myluxroots, our application suite has been developed to give you enable you to add your recent family members born from 1895 to today, to link them to those already entered in our database, and thus obtain a pedigree chart for the people you entered. (Please note that people born until 1923 are often entered in our database on basis of information from the National Archives and that the people born after y (y=actual year-100) are not shown.)
The subscriber can add studies, jobs, functions, addresses, other information, pictures and links to all the records. The subscriber, enriching the database luxroots, earns myluxroots points. These points can be used to build pedigree charts and/or lists of descendants for people in the database already linked by marriage.
If you need further help, don't hesitate to contact us by mail, phone (00352) 2799 4713 or skype: eicherg (Enter 'luxroots' in the information field in order to get a new contact.)

At the initiative of the roots.lu and luxroots.com groups, a national day of genealogy has been organized since 2006 in Leudelange by luxracines together with the local partner. Following disagreements with the local partner, luxracines left Leudelange in 2010 and - without an agreement with the same local partner - luxroots abandoned the co-organization of the 2013 Genealogy day. Since no invitation has reached us, the Genealogy group luxroots will not be present at this day of genealogy. Therefore, we look forward to seeing you on the following events:
Thanks in advance for your visit!
