Lucca, Italy, Parrish Records

NormVenturi

I have just returned from Lucca, Italy, having digitized records from several of the local parrishes, specifically, Montuolo and Cerasomma that have many of my family's names recorded; Birth, Marriage, Death and Census records, going back to the 1600s.

I have over 25,000 names and need help indexing these names from Italian to English. They are not part of Family Search and cannot be found online. Are there some of you in the community who would like to help with this project? I would welcome it.

Thank You,

Norm Venturi

This is a great project idea. If you can't get support from FS, I'd suggest one of the Italian citizenship message boards (https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/italiancitizenship/). Several members were applying in Lucca due to the ease of the comune's requirements at the time.
