Lucca Cemeteries in Lucca/Capannori/Segromigno/San Gennaro
Posted: Thu May 17, 2007 10:42 PM UTC
*sigh* I know this sounds nutty..but since my family is from these areas in Tuscany, I want to visit both the churches (maybe not all in Lucca!) and cemeteries where my ancestors may have been (or still are). I'll be in Lucca mid Sept 2007 (almost here!) and hope to spend some time in all these areas. I'm thinking both Churches and Cemeteries would be predominantly Catholic in the 1700 to 1800s in this area? Any advice is appreciated.

a government run or sponsored web site for tourist information may be able to help you some way. look here for a link to the site for the country you wish to visit. ( www.towd.com )
some of the government run or sponsored services for tourist information use to keep a list of certified historians for certain town and villages.
you can try a google search for certified historians for a certain town and see what results you get.
