I have just came across possible information about Maria Grazia .. There is a birth and death that would suggest she may have been a child born to Lorenzo and Restituta but may have died young. Is it possible this other girl assumed her name for naturalisation purposes??? I'm clutching at straws to try and link up what has been said. I found it on a Scandinavian site, I have taken a screenshot of it too

Hello All, I am doing some research for a book on the Italians in Scotland and have come across a wonderful photograph of Angelo Risi who was born in Cervaro, Frosinone in 1870 and died in Glasgow 1931. Angelo is standing outside his shop called The London Road Ice Cream Café. I would like to trace any Risi family members living in Glasgow today, but can't find any! Would you be able to put me in touch with any? Thanks

Hi everyone. This is an amazing forum to have stumbled upon after days and weeks trying to find info on my G.grandfather Giovanni Risi. I'm trying to obtain Italian citizenship via birthright but my Grandfather Giuseppe (Giuseppi on some documents) Alberto Risi was born in South Shields. He grew up in Italy and went to school there but I don't know where but my Mum says a lot of my Dad's family were from Cassino. I've no idea when my G.Grandfather was born or if he was born in the UK or Italy. All I know is that he was married to a Francesca Lanna. My Grandfather Giuseppe was born in March 1917 and lived in Dundee for a while where he married my Gran. They then divorced and he sailed to New York in 1947 and eventually lived in Phoenix, Arizona and had another family. I believe he might have lived in Newcastle for a while too. Any help would be appreciated!
