Hello,
My grandmother was from Montuolo, Lucca. It's a small village north of the City of Lucca. How do I find out where records will be? Do you think they will be at the civil record office in Lucca or some other Comune close by? Need to write to the correct location.
Thanks,
Nello

Thank you for your help and information. How did you know it is a hamlet of Lucca? I thought it was but I could not find it listed anywhere.
I have discovered the FHC local. They have been very gracious and helpful.

If you go to www.nonsolocap.it and put in MONTUOLO and click cerca you will get a zip code, Montuolo, province abbreviation and region and tothe far right it says Montuolo is a frazione (absorbed neighborhood, hamlet) for the city of LUCCA. Her records would then be in the Uficio di Stato Civile in LUCCA.
