Help with a town name (maybe?)

Post by nicolep »

HI

I'm trying to sort out if this is a town name (and if so, what town). You were all so helpful in translating my ggrandfather's birth registry so I thought I'd pop back on over!

I thought it was Piassa Barovi but I cannot find anything similar to that name in or around Bergamo.

I'm looking at record 1295 at the end of line 8 and beginning of line 9.

Hi Nicole

Welcome back. I'm reading Piazza Baroni, No 2?.

Buonasera @Angela.
#2, Piazza dei Baroni (presently Piazza della Libertà) was the address of Ospedale San Marco in Bergamo.

Buonasera G.

Grazie ancora. E interessante. Preferisco l'originale. (Credo che la campana/ torre dell'orologio e stata modificata).

I am sure Nicole will value having this info and the photos.

Oh my goodness. This is way more than I could have expected. This means more to my family than I can even say. The only thing we're missing now is Arturo's baptism records and then I'll move on to trying to sort out the family that adopted him (even though we aren't biologically related, I've come to view them as my family)!

Since you guys have been such pros...anyone want to help sort out this love copy of a post card sent to our friend Arturo from (I think?) his adopted sister Rita?

I personally especially like what appears to be writing (upside down!) along the top. It is almost like they knew one day someone would be trying to read this and wanted to make it as difficult as possible :lol:
