I have been spending a lot of time pouring over records from Borgetto and I came across a phenomenon that I wonder what the explanation could be. On 14 June of 1860, an inexplicable number of marriages occurred. In a relatively small town you'd expect to see two or three or so marriages recorded under a given date. On that date,
by my count there were 131 marriages recorded. My best guess would be that it had something to do with Italy's second war for independence. But I thought I'd throw it out there for any information - or ideas.
