"San Gemignano di Moriano"

Post by seg113 »

I have two great-granduncles who were born in San Gemignano di Moriano, Lucca, Tuscany, Italy. According to some websites, San Gemignano di Moriano is one of Lucca's municipalities. I tried to find on the Mapquest but it shows a street name as "Via San Gemignano" in the town of Palmata. Is that it? If not, please tell me where exactly is "San Gemignano di Moriano" in Italy?

Here is a website that might give you more information.

I think this is the right.... If you search with Google maps San Gemignano di Moriano you can find that there is the street and the church:
