Welcome to a place for the living history in each one of us to be uncovered and honored.
About Grand Origin
Our personal histories are as rich and multifaceted as each one of us. For many, especially those with ancestors from the Cape Coast region of Gomoa Fetteh, Ghana, these histories may be covered with a shroud of mystery and forgetting.
By sharing resources and experiences, we can assist each other in learning our stories and uncovering our rich past. Each of us has a place we come from, and a story about how we came from there, and who brought us along the way. Each of us has a grand origin.
Take the first step of discovery…
We invite you to explore our three main areas of focus: resources for family history research, information around the work of the Amononi Hemaa in Central Ghana, and opportunities to take part in humanitarian initiatives and cultural experiences.
