Another soul searching for her roots! These were my Great-Grandparents and I am really interested in finding out if my roots there are Italian or Austrian. From what I understand, WWII changed the borders between Italy and Austria so often that I am really at a loss as to how to figure this out. Any guidance from those who have done this before would be greatly appreciated!

Giovanni Battista Orler;
Catarina Dalla Sega
Birth Towns:
Mezzano di Primiero, Trento, Austria
Imer di Primiero, Trento, Austria
Birthdate(s)
1881-1934; (Giovanni)
September 11, 1883 (Catarina)

Hi,
Do you know Giovanni Battista’s parents names?

I’ve found one Cattarina Dellasega born on 11 September 1883

Hello! Yes! Anna Maria and Pietro Orler. So good to hear from you!

Yes! It is the second Giovanni listed and thank you so much! I can’t find a maiden name for his mother, Anna Maria. Do you think it is possible that her name is also Orler? I have a lot of work to do to learn the ins and outs of this, but I truly appreciate your help!
Thank you!
