Hello all
I just found my great grandfather 'Carlo Cascarini' birth certificate from Gera Lario, Como in 1851.
Was wondering if anyone else has researched those lastnames or may know of databases or records from that area that could be checked.
Thanks
Danigot

Civil registrations (births, deaths, marriages, etc.) are available for Gera Lario, Como at Ancestry.com with a World/Deluxe subscription...
These records cover years 1866 - 1936...
Is there something I can look up for you?

Much appreciated! I will take you up on that:
All I have is the birth certificate:
Carlo (Giuseppe) Cascarini, Born march 18, 1851. son of Giovanni Battista Cascarini and Agata (or Agueda) Bussi Franzozi (or Fransosi/sozi/zosi).Registered in San Vincenzo Parish.
Any other record about any of them (or people with same lastnames in the same town) would be WONDERFUL to have.
Thanks!

He is age 36, a baker, living in Gera.
Child was born on 2 July (yesterday, because this document is dated the 3rd) at 6 AM

Yes, it helps a lot.
Of course, it provides some answers and lots of new questions
No idea why my great-great-grandfather is mentioned as "Giovanni Battista" in some places and "Battista Ferrario" in others.
Your help is VERY valuable.
