Palazzo Mocenigo, Venice

[cranium]

Would anyone have an idea where I could get historical information about the Palazzo Mocenigo.
My family worked there before it was turned into the museum. The family name is Caenazzo.
Kind regards

Hello,

I think you mean the costume museum? My family also worked at the Palazzo Mocenigo but the other one where Lord Byron lived. If you have found any information on how to trace families who worked at Palazzo's please let me know or if you think I might be able to help please let me know.

Regards,

Claudia

HI Laura,

It is a beautiful, I went there when I was last in Venice which was 2 years ago. As a costume designer I was interested to see both the building and the contents. It is a magnificent place and the costumes are quite incredible.

This is a different Mocenigo Palace to the one my ancestors worked at, which is opposite the San Toma Traghetto. They worked under Lucia Mocenigo after her husband Alvise died.

Many thanks for the links!

Regards,

Claudia

Dear Livio thanks for catching me in your capable hands. The last dot is supposed to be a period at the end of a sentence. =Peter=

Peter,

I now that you type really fast but if you pay attention to a small detail you won't have the occasional problem with links that don't lead to a website. If you get into the habit of leaving a space between the link and the next word or punctuation, you'll make your link a hyperlink or clickable link. For instance: http://italiangenealogy.tardio.com . And another example is http://www.italianamericans.com/ which sadly has been off air for a while now. Notice the space between the links and the next word or punctuation mark.

Hai capito? (This is what my cousin in Palermo says to me after she finishes a discorso. It is not meant in disrespect. )


cariños,
