Happy Christmas to you too!

Thank you so much! Must brush up on my Italian

Thank you suanj. How do you suggest I go on from here? I have very recently moved to Italy, but we are down in Puglia, also my Italian is rubbish!

That is my mother. I'm not sure all of the story is factually correct. I didn't think my uncle died in Germany, but I may be wrong.

Suanj - Yes! Apologies it must have sent just before my internet dropped. I did a search and it didn't come up, hence me reposting.

PippoM - Cesare Cappellari born in Sospirolo, Veneto in 1924 died in 1946

Thank you.

This is the third time Ive tried posting - I click on the finished article and my internet goes down! :x

My Italian mother's brother, my uncle, was a partisan in WW2. He died in 1946 (I think) of TB due to the damp conditions he fought in. Im sure my mum told me he was based up in the mountains, but my brother thinks he was based in Belluno.
Im sure as a child I was taking to somewhere in Trieste ...
