The first surname isn't correct, it's Biagioni, with an 'i'. It's quite common in the Massa Carrara area. <http://www.info412.it/ris.jhtml?CG_CognDen=biagioni&CG_Nom=&CG_Loc=&CG_Prov=MS&CG_TipoRich=RES&CG_Ind=&CG_codProv=&Lancia+la+ricerca.x=0&Lancia+la+ricerca.y=0> Giorgini is common, too: <http://www.info412.it/ris.jhtml?CG_CognDen=giorgini&CG_Nom=&CG_Loc=&CG_Prov=MS&CG_TipoRich=RES&CG_Ind=&CG_codProv=&Lancia+la+ricerca.x=0&Lancia+la+ricerca.y=0> PS. Massa Carrara isn't in Northern Italy, but in Central Italy, in Tuscany ;) Hope it helps, Fabio
