prisons of Gaeta & Ischia

As a nation state, Italy has emerged only in 1871. Until then the country was politically divided into a large number of independant cities, provinces and islands. The currently available evidences point out to a dominant Etruscan, Greek and Roman cultural influence on today's Italians.

prisons of Gaeta & Ischia

Postby dmt1955 » 10 Apr 2013, 17:02

i have ancestors who were imprisoned and/or died in one &/or both of these prisons beginning in 1832, they were members of the carbonari who fought for constitutional government.

are there records that were kept of prisoners in either or both of these prisons as to the dates of imprisonment / release / death?

would a prisoner's death be recorded in the town of death as well as town of birth?

thanks,
Donna
