Pellegrin MENCARINI - International Genealogical Index Gender: M Birth: Abt. 1662 , Italy ----- Mensaje original ----- De: "Jean Spence" <[email protected]> Para: <[email protected]> Enviado: miércoles, 12 de junio de 2002 23:40 Asunto: [Anglo-Italian] List of London Italians > When I sent the list of Italians found in Clerkenwell/Holborn, I omitted to tell you that where I said "name found in...." I meant I had personally found these names in my ancient Italian book - Melzi's dictionary of people and places, which also lists Garibaldi's "Thousand" Marshals and their birth places. In other words the bits I put in brackets were my own suggestions as found in this book. > > Can anyone help me find a baptism of Giuseppe MENCARINI circa 1817-1822 (he lied about his age!), son of Domenico, a farmer. Possibly in the San Salvatore/Monte Carlo region of the province of Florence, Tuscany. Near Pescia/Montecatini Terme. Am collecting all sightings of this uncommon Italian name in Tuscany. > Jean Spence > > > > ==== ANGLO-ITALIAN Mailing List ==== > List Admin Message > http://www.dreamwater.net/genealogy/AdminMessage.htm > > ============================== > To join Ancestry.com and access our 1.2 billion online genealogy records, go to: > http://www.ancestry.com/rd/redir.asp?targetid=571&sourceid=1237 > >
