There are 15 pwersons surnamed Chiari in the province of Livorno which may have relatvies of your on or from Elba. You can write in Italian or very simple english and ask them if they are related to you. Go to www.paginebianche.it and insert Chiari in the first line and LI (for the entire province of livorno which includes Elba) and click CERCA for the 15 person names,addresses and telephone numbers. Suggest you send one letter to all 15 with an envleiope in each letter with a dollar inside for stamps and your name and address on the envlope to ecnourage a reply. Peter
