Help with street name

[jkingb]

I am having a hard time identifying the street on this 1897 death record from Gassino (I attached only the relevant few lines). It looks like Via Cavale or (Casale)? # 22. Not sure. I have tried looking for the street on a map of the town, using different spelling variations, but no name thing exists. Were some streets re-named after this date? Can somebody help? Thank you so much.

I think "Casale" is a safer bet

Thanks, Paola. I tried Casale at first (even Barale, because on another record the first letter looked like a "b"), but no such street comes up on google maps. That is why I wonder if the street name
may have changed since the late 1800s/early 1900s. Does anybody know whether this was known to occur in Northern Italy?

Street names change everywhere

Why not email the Comune of Gassino and ask about "Via Casale?"

Thanks, Tessa.

I actually did not know that. It hasn't ever come up for me.. I know that house numbers changed (at least in other parts of Europe, so probably in Italy too), but I wasn't sure about streets.

It didn't occur to me to email the comune (assumed the email would not be read), but I'll give it
a try! Thanks.

I checked again (with quotes), and it appears that "via Casale" still exists. It's just not on google maps.

Oh, no. I tried deleting this yesterday, and thought I had!

There exists a Via Casale - but unfortunately, not within the town of Gassino... I jumped to post too soon, before reading the full address. This Via Casale must be in a town closely. Back to the original plan -writing to the Comune...
