Hello everyone,
I have been given information that my great great grandmother was from an orphanage called novara. Does anyone have any information on this place or where I could get that information? I believe at one point she was fostered out. Her son was born in Mornago and after his father died, she had 3 more children in Cimbra.
Thank you for your time in advance
Abby

Re: Orphanage Novara
Dear Abby write to Novara and if they have the records they will let you know one way or the other. The sooner you write the sooner you will know for sure since they talk about records dating from 1824 to 1989 but do not specify what their archives contain . =Peter=
