Leghorn map from 1733 shows land of Gaetano Brandi

cherielynn251 — 2012-07-06 15:52:51Z

Hello: Can anyone help me with this Brandi family? Named in a catalog of Maps held at the British Museum is a 1733 map:

Listing: "Pianta e misura di terreni di attinenza del signor gaetano brandi;" drawn by Giuseppe Cortoni, 1733

Translation:Plant and extent of land of origin of Mr. Gaetano Brandi;...

I have searched for our family who immigrated to London before 1780 and with no leads at all I am trying to think outside the box.

Can anyone help with the Brandi family from Leghorn?

Thank you, Cherie

I am looking for information on Constance or Costanza Buonacorssi born 2 Dec 1895 in Liverno, Italy to Giusseppi Buonacorssi and Ida Theresa Ciancaglini.

Guiseppi Buonacorssi's parents were Fortunato Buonacorssi and Giussepina Aniselmo - assumably born close to 1870-1875.

I have seen Buonacorssi also spelled Buonaccorsi.

Thank you.

Piera Augusta Marie BIADI - b February 26, 1918, Livorno

jnrollberg_1 — 2010-02-27 00:20:38Z

Dear Friends: We seek information on Piera Augusta Marie Biadi. Her parents were Artemia Zucchelli and Vasco Biadi. Mr. Biadi supposedly died in 1917 or early 1918 in war.

Piera may have had a brother, Carlos, who died shortly after World War II at home, perhaps of malaria. We do not know of other siblings or family members, but would be so grateful to learn of any facts of this family's life. Piera later married an Arthur Weedfald, American, and moved to the United States.

Thanks so much. Ciao! Jeanne Rollberg
