Exploring/Documenting Tognazzini Genealogy
Dad was an avid genealogist of his paternal (Tognazzini) and maternal (Giorgi) families which I helped him computerize and publish beginning in about 1980.
The narrative story documenting his research into his/our Tognazzini genealogy is contained in this booklet published in August 1992:

In addition, I computerized the individual entries of all of Dad's Tognazzini genealogy research and in August 1981 and August 1985 worked with dad to publish printed booklets that included a "Decorative Descendent Chart" (wiki explanation here) - starting with patriarch Noe Tognazzini, born February 18, 1841, and matriarch Maria Gentila Zanolli, born August 15, 1854. The booklets were distributed widely at the family reunions, then held annually in Santa Maria, CA. Because this booklets contact full names, birth, marriage, and divorce dates of still living family members, I have chosen not to publish the descendent charts on this publically available web site - though am happy to discuss direct sharing with other family members. Similarly, in 2008, my son discovered the online family tree/genealogy site geni.com and initiated adding family information - whereupon I added all the names/dates from this paper publication to that site. Access to that site is available (by direct request) to those family members in the tree. Some family members have kept the geni.com site information updated. Following I am sharing those contents of the August 1985 publication that does include the names of family members in the generational chart but not the date details - below:
