Mercogliano Cemeteries
I'm looking for cemeteries in this town that may contain Ferrara's. My grand father came from there to america but his parents remained there.

Although anything is possible, you should be aware of the facts regarding Italian burials. See this thread for information and links to other threads on this subject http://italiangenealogy.com/Forums/view ... 17212.htmlwinegen wrote:I'm looking for cemeteries in this town that may contain Ferrara's.

How do I find the phone number for the city hall?
Re: Mercogliano Cemeteries
Comune di Mercogliano
Via Roma
0825.788145
0825.787027 fax
I believe though that the above phone number is for calls within Italy. Also you would need to be able to speak Italian to make such a phone call.

Cemetaries in Italy are mostly located in the highest part of the town and surrounded by pine trees. The cemetaries never grow beyond their walls and people are buries with markers in the walls and in the ground for 20 years dug up with the bones placed in a comunal pit every 20 years to make room for the new burials. The comunal pit is the final repository for the deceased. The record of death is in the Municipal vital stats office (MUNICIPIO at www.nonsolocap.it) UFFICIO DI STATO CIVILE.
