I remember Naomi from st chads saying they do not have a copy of the map. so there's one family member who is not at st Josephs which is Maria, I received her death certificate and it says in the district of Handsworth, and that's where she lived. Any idea of anymore catholic churches with...

I was back at st Josephs today but the guy who took my details is on holiday for another week. We had a more in-depth look round the churchyard, but its a needle in a haystack. So I have to wait, although im so impatient, do you think there's anywhere else I can access the map?

Yes an A. Iommi. So that would either be my grandad Anthony or his brother Albert. Both passed.

Yes I just looked it up aswell. Really didn’t know some names had English versions. Giovanni is John aswell.

If so, I didn't know that.

Yes I guess that's how the Italian genes have got weaker. My dad is half Italian and looks it. On my ancestry DNA im 28% . My grandad spoke fluent Italian, but my dad and all his sisters didn't, but then my grandad and his brother married English women. I got my great grandmothers death...

Yes today 9:45am. :) we shall go once a month now. The priest was very nice. He danced at the end with a drum which was entertaining lol.

So we got there early this morning and a mass was about to start, they really wanted us to attend, so we did. It was an experience as I haven’t been to a catholic mass for quite some time. Afterwards, I said we need the map, and afew people asked around thinking they could just bring me a copy...

Thankyou, that's kind. :) I wish I could somehow sort the section in there that is left as they rely on volunteers, but it would need a lot of people and time.

Thankyouuuu :))

Ahhh thanks for that I didn't realise the numbers would be on the back. Will help definitely with counting as im not hopeful they have a headstone but could be wrong.

Ah right that sounds correct as we spoke to the priest and he said he serves two churches. We will go anyway and have a look.

Ahhh right ok, well that answers that. I did wonder as id never seen the name John come up and only the one Luigi.

Just a quick post on QAC. As many will know this particular college is for young adults between 16-25 with various special needs. Just wondered if anyone had any positive or negative stories, own experiences, or anything in general about this college? I have been to look round it and I thought...

Its crazy because id say here and now, a lot of people would take the opportunity to get out of Brum. moving to Italy would be a dream for some, even Oxfordshire has got to be better than here. Id have loved to of seen North Birmingham and the city centre in the 1920s. So im going back to st...

I find it fascinating seeing original documents, they had no idea would be searched up.

Hmm interesting. It must have been for a better life as it seems they all came.

On todays visit.

Great I will upload :) planning to go Sunday. Im not sure if you've been to the churchyard some areas are very overgrown but I will get to it somehow.

Is this Eleutrio? the spelling is different on the card
