someplace near Palu di Giovo

[rwelgin1]

In a couple of civil records for an ancestor, the record refers to "di Palu al Maso dei Cerchi"
I am attempting to figure out if this literally means from someplace close to Palu or if there is an actual city called Cerchi.
I can not locate it on a map, and as I stated, it is on 3 separate civil record from Palu di Giovo.

Could you post the record for us to look at?

This is the death record for my 5th great grandfather, Pietro Dallona who died 18/2/1833 at the age of 64.
The record lists his place of residence as #24 Maso Cerchi, and a peasant farmer of di Palu al Maso dei Cerchi, if I read it correctly.
I cannot find Maso dei Cerchi.

Thank you

There are 6 PALU 5 of which are "frazione" or abosrbed hamlets by other towns (Comune) and the one remaining is a town in its own right.

Go to www.mappe.com and then select Italy and put in PALU di Giovo and click..... look for the remaining 5 PALU geographically to get oriented. =Peter=

"Maso" is the name given to farmsteads in the eastern Alps.

The website is now www.mappy.com and not the previous spelling since its undergoing changes. =Peter+

It seems that the name of the city that my Dallona family is from is actually SERCI, Giovo, Trento, Italy. I cannot seem to find that city when I do a search in the LDS film search to locate the films I would need for that city, however.
Does anyone have any idea what films I would order for researching baptismal and marriage in SERCI?
