Caronno Corbellaro & Lozzo in Varese Province

[aristides]

Does anyone know if the following communes still exist in Varese Province: Caronno Corbellaro or Lozzo? They appear on family birth documents from the early 1800s. They should be near Albizzate. Thanks for your help.

I think you're right, Nonna. I saw that on the last link I posted, too but I didn't see the one for Caronno Corbellaro.

[aristides]

You were correct. The document does have Lozza as the location. I believe that both Lozza and Caronno Corbellaro are frazioni in the commune of Castiglione Olona. Can anyone verify this? Thanks so much for your help. You guys are great.

This from the link I gave above. I just scrolled down and highlighted Lozza.

Does this help?

Paul..

Not sure which internet browser you are using but if you're using internet explorer, you can go to the left side of this screen and click on Locations in Italy under the Databases heading. Type in Lozza and search. It says that Lozza is a township. You will also have the option of viewing a map of the area. You can do this will any town you wish to search.

Let us know how you make out.

[aristides]

Found both of them. Thanks so much for your help.

Per Paul Montebello,
ho effettuato una ricerca genealogica sulla mia famiglia,tutti nati a Caronno Corbellaro(tra il 1700 e 1900),fino al 1927 comune indipendente in provincia di Como,dal 1927 frazione di Castiglione Olona e da quell'anno provincia di Varese nel nord Italia.
Il comune di Castiglione Olona ha i registri dal 1866 fino ai giorni nostri,prima del 1866 occorre guardare i registri della chiesa,in quel tempo Gornate Superiore e Caronno Corbellaro dipendevano dalla Parrocchia di Lozza,comune indipendente a 2 Km da Caronno Corbellaro e 3 Km da Castiglione Olona.
Saluti.
