Mary:
there was a large immigration of the
Quilici families from Lammari
Lucca It. between 1898 and 1920. I have dirrect links to two or three that came pre 1900 to
Nevada.
Luigi
Quilici son of
Lorenzo and Maddalana
Ballantini born about 1850, signed his father death certificate.
Dominico
Quilici born 25 Oct 1852 son to
Lorenzo and Maddalana
Ballantini married in 1879 in Lunata
Lu. IT. to a
Fontana family she was born 25 Oct. 1854
Annunziata
Quilici that married
Alessio Galli from Saltocchio in 1880. she was born about 1850 from this line I am related
I have found records of a
Lorenzo Quilici married to a
Gori line from Lammari but can not substanciate it.
Giovanni
Lorenzo Quilici died in March 12 1882 son to
Francesco Quilici....
I am presently working on my line from Lammari, but there are about 30-40
Quilici families that lived in Lammari around 1880.
The records for the area start with Cappanori
Lucca becoming part of
Tuscany (Toscana) in 1850 and started microfilm in 1866. Death records can pick up the generation before with potential of pre- 1800.
Lucca was rulled by the Duchess of
Lucca untill her death in 1849.... There ar NO records before that...
If I can assist you please let me know....
