Dave,

Sorry for this late reply, but I ve been very busy.

I have Giovanni ( John), Giuseppe ( Joseph ) and Angelo in my family tree:
They were born in
Fabbriche di Vallico, Garfagnana, Lucca.

Where were born your Italian ancestors, what village in Lucca ?

What type of work did they do ? Were they plaster figurine makers ?

Best Regards,

Carlos Vanni
