Famiglia Tonsig

Post by silviaf »

I would like to obtain information about the Tonsig Family. The name of my grandfather is Lino Tonsig, borned in 1910/05/23, sun of Francisco Tonsig and Maria Duca Tonsig, in the north of Italy (Friuli-Udine region). I want to build our genealogy tree and I need more information of his grandfathers, his parents, dates and cities that they are borned.

I thank any help.

There are 8 Monastero towns. One Monastero, Monasterolo and 6 others with another word attached to Monastero in Italy. Are you sure of the town? The only Monastero is postale 61021 in the province of Pesaro in the Marche region. Peter

Aquileia

Post by silviaf »

I believe that the city is Aquileia, because my grandmother was from there and my grandfather lived near of her. So, is Monastero a place in Aquileia?
