Hello,
can anyone help me please in locating where someone was born. I know that my ancestor was born in Italy as on the census it states Italian resident; but where he was born is quite difficult.
His name was Michele CATALANI
His mother was Roas Ossi
His father was Pietro Bartolomeo Catalani.
Iknow that in 1901 he was living here in London, and was married to Eliza.
Can anyone help me please ?
many thanks

Don't put off until tomorrow doing what you can do today. If you like doing it today you can do it again tomorrow. Be kind to your children for it is they who will decide which care home you end up in.
