Hi,
My family are from Torrioni, Avellino and I'd really love to know more about what life was like there in the early 1900s/ late 1800s.
My grandmother's family were poor, and she has some memories of helping her family with work and taking care of her siblings, but I'm interested in learning more. She remembers her mother and grandmother being unqualified 'midwives' in the village, but I can't find any information about this.
I've not been able to find much information at all on Torrioni, and I'm not really sure how to go about researching this. Can anyone help me out with some information or recommendations of websites or books that might be helpful?
Thank you,
Lisa
