searching for bosano

Post by gibbo »

I am trying to trace my ancestors who originate from Varazze, Genoa. I have gone back to 1723 when one Bartolome Bosano arrived in Gibraltar. He died on the 22 June 1769. I will be travelling to Verazze soon and need help to continue my search.

Hi,
Varazze is not far from Genoa but is under Savona province. I guess registers for births, marriages and deaths in the City Hall start from 1866 like most other towns.
I don't know if church registers go back to 1700. Anyway, I was told once that those registers were kept in the church of S. Ambrogio in Varazze and the priest name was Don Luigi Grosso.

Hi Uantiti,

Thanks for your advice. I shall try the church of S. Ambrogio when I visit. I am beginning to think that my search is going to be more difficult than I thought.

Regards

I've only just come across this. I am also a descendant of Bartolome Bosano, did you have any luck in Varazze ?
